The status quo is broken beyond repair. That seems obvious. What comes next (and who "the economy" will serve) is completely up in the air. I, for one, think we should prioritize life, not money.
The folks who equate "emissions reductions" with "forced austerity and permanent quarantine lockdown for decades" have such such SUCH a small imagination of what is possible.

We can structure society and the economy in SO MANY truly life-giving ways. https://www.ecoliteracy.org/article/great-turning
