we need some breakthroughs but don’t need to live like amish. Heat pumps, nuclear, solar panels, electric cars, urbanization that promotes walkability, all exist and go a long way. We need plenty of breakthroughs, lots of help from policy as well, but already have much of what we need to get pretty far along.

Everything you described requires the production of CO2 and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Being Amish would not :)

Not interested in living like a serf because your religion tells you we need to sacrifice our lifestyles.
