    the “optimal” economic path during climate change

    The optimal solution is to spend as much as you can into preventing climate change, because a dead planet has no economy. No customers = no income, no profit, no business.

    But that requires looking past the next quarter.

    Also I’m convinced economics “professionals” have all figured out that the whole system is bullshit that gets made up on a day to day basis by people who inherited their wealth, and just want to gift along with it. “I know it’s bullshit but they’re giving me money, so…”

    The only things that assume infinite growth are viruses and parasites.
