It’s worse than that. If we degrowthed and decarbonized fast enough to stop global warming, billons of people will die. If we continue to do nothing or weak sauce half measures to stop global warming, billions of people will die.
Being realistic would be pessimistic in this case.
The science clearly says we’re already fucked. We’d not only have to reach zero emissions but actively start removing previous emissions from the atmosphere.

This is the dumbest fucking take I’ve ever heard.
