I get what you’re saying, and you’re not wrong in that sense…
But we are heading for / already in the … general collapse of modern technological society.
Matrix code has too much technical debt?
Real world has too much fragile complexity, too much accumulated and unavoidable environmental destruction, too many cheaply extracted and expended vital resources (leaving only the expensive to extract), and too many mouths to feed, who can only be fed with those now expensive vital resources as part of the food production system.
The actuaries broadly agree with this scenario as well, though their timeline is a bit more optimistic.
50% collapse of world GDP in 2070 to 2100, as compared to right now.
We overshot 1.5C last year.
88% of the world’s coral reefs are bleached and basically permanently dead.
Hansen’s latest climate papers are trying to explain why our climate models have been wrong… in the optimistic direction, fundamental climate sensitivity is actually greater than consensus.
Antarctica melting faster than projections, Artic getting closer and closer to a Blue Ocean event, again faster than expected.
We might have the AMOC collapse in the next 10 years.
… Its still all downhill from here.
