    Quite often I feel like the climate transformation simply cannot be achieved - at least if we want it to be sustainable (socially) and want to keep the environmental base upon which human society is built - by profit driven or market economies in general. A mode of rational, democratized planning with public ownership of the economy (ideally decentralized into regions/administrative districts to be able to respond and adapt to local conditions) seems to be the only solution.

      I mean it’s roundabout 50 years that we let market forces solve this problem. How many years until we see that it actually works? Do we have this years left? What happens if it, mammon forbid, it actually can’t solve climate change.
