Yeah, all of us here should be working towards scaling back this growth crazy capitalist system to a more sustainable system instead I'm taking shit because people doing that went to a fascist commentator's house to intimidate him.

Do you want a society without economic growth?

I'd like a society with sustainable growth.

The great irony is we can have both sustainable and significant economic growth if governments made the appropriate policy shifts toward the development of non fossil fuel energy.

Sustainable over which timescale?

Why do you ask about timescale?

To understand if you're OK with investing some envirocapital to get results in the future, or if you wanted sustainable meaning not using more resources at this instant than are recreated.

Tucker is hardly a fascist. He's not even a journalist. He's a racist talking head. Same as Hannity, Ingraham, and Pirro

He is, or at least was, a journalist.

But what he also is is completely flexible in his politics.  He'll say whatever the audience wants to hear if it keeps him employed.

I'm 100% pro-nuclear if that helps. I think current renewable energies are too little too late. The green parties and movements are really stupid and unreasonable on the nuclear power question.

no, you can't, unfortunately.  You can reduce greenhouse gaz emissions, but you can't stop everything else and sustain economic+population growth. The NYT had a wonderful piece about this, work writtent by economists, but I haven't bookmarked it as usual.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Why would you want to sustain population growth?
