Let’s worry about that in 1400 years. _If_ we make it that far. As things stand we may not have to worry about it at all because we wont.
I’m one of those people, so this argument doesn’t work for me. There indeed appears to be a slowing of global population growth and an abundance of headroom to grow further.
Among said stars. I think earth should become a green utopia but humanity should colonise space starting with our own solar system.
I think we should expand everywhere we can. But keep home safe and clean.
Then why don’t they say so?
We can keep both space and home clean. But as a species we should grow into space. You know, there’s virtually endless … space in space.
I fully agree that we should be a society that produces a vast surplus of energy to perform actions or work that need doing.
With an abundance of energy, we can move mountains on this planet. What's holding us back is this silly belief we need to be living in the dark ages and not turning on the heater and staying inside a bunker so we don't freeze to death outside.
Electricity should be incredibly cheap coming out of outlets in our homes. We have the ability but not the political and social will to do this.
