Great stuff, but you left out the single most important caveat: do not bring another innocent life into this dying world currently on a Global Average Surface Temperature (GAST) trajectory to hit 3 degC over the 1991-2020 baseline by 2032 and the extinction level 6 degC by 2047. Have a blessed day.
Morals aside, how does wealth redistribution help slow the keeling curve?
Also, I’m skeptical a shrinking economy doesn’t crush the poor long before it changes the wealthy. Don’t get me wrong, consumerism is absolutely the problem, but it is what is powering our governing system of capitalism and society itself. And people would riot if they had to give up most of their consumption if they didn’t want to.
Lowering our consumption is 100% what we need to do, but how do you do that without capitalism crashing , taking society, as it is structured, with it? What do we replace capitalism with? And btw how do you overthrow the ruling class to do it?
Limited understanding but we have a saying in my family:
Stupidity is self serving and self correcting, and the are no hospitals for stupidity other than chaos and the markets will be forced into common sense, no matter how smart you are or think as such!

NetZero is unnecessary, technologically unattainable, economically unviable and extremely foolish.
The last thing we need is a tax on energy.. it must be as low cost as possible to generate prosperity.

If we had an ICE AGE coming life resets us all!
This is a good chart and KUDOS for your insight!
Just a common man, here!

A NATO ally figured out the trick to getting weapons to Ukraine cheaper and faster. It could be critical
Is it possible to obtain your slides? (Including back-up ones)
Thank you
Eventually. The lecture I gave was in German and will be published on Youtube. I am working on an English version.
