> Degrowth frames climate change as a problem of personal overconsumption and extravagance to be curbed by austere self-restraint and government policy, rather than as a technological problem to be overcome by installing green energy

The elephant in the room is human overpopulation. Every doubling of the population and we'd have to halve our "personal overconsumption and extravagance" to keep the environmental effects the same. We've had more than one doubling in the time I've been alive.

But somehow large families are still celebrated instead of being treated as the eternal "personal overconsumption and extravagance" that they create.
