@kim @wendypalmer A solarpunk or degrowth future is not a slow and painful path unless you're one of the have-yachts.

For most people it's far preferable to the alternative of dystopia, fascism and collapse.

Of course if you work in the handful of jobs left in the oil industry you might disagree; we need to take all the workers with us, which means help for retraining and switching industry etc. But there are already more jobs in green tech than in dinosaur fossil industries.
