There is no going backwards. There never has been and there never will be

The Only Way Out is Through

Progress, Exploration, Adventure, Improvement, Ambition, Innovation and Expansion, are all part of Human Nature. As a species, we will always look to increase our standard of living, provide more opportunities for our kids, and push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Increasing a population’s standard of living requires using more resources. And energy is the main resource at the foundational level. To increase the standard of living, we need to use more energy.

It is against human nature (and therefore impossible, without mass coercion) to hinder the increasing standard of living for populations across the world - especially in developing geographies like India and Africa. It follows that it’d be against human nature to restrain increasing energy usage.

Excess carbon is a real problem that negatively affects the entire world, and will continue to become a bigger problem. We won’t stop creating excess carbon until there’s a cheaper, easier way to create energy.

The only way to do this is lean into Human Nature’s propensity for Ambition and Innovation. Direct more resources towards things like fusion, which can lead to cheaper, cleaner energy creation, and carbon sequestering. Fighting against human nature is losing battle. We need to flow with our power, not against it.
