A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change and Pandemics
In their book, Troy and Drew argue that we should strive for a society able to ensure high living standards while stabilizing the environment. This means: reduced individual energy consumption and a switch to renewable energy; mass rewilding of the Earthâs land and seas to absorb carbon emissions, support the planetâs biodiversity and halt the current catastrophic levels of species extinction; a widespread uptake in vegan diets, to reduce carbon emissions and use the Earthâs available land more efficiently; and a global socialist planning system, to manage the planetâs resources and the worldâs activities.
This conversation was recorded on Tuesday 13 September 2022.
