I applaud the initiative. But I think the real solution is to dial down human civilization. We need less people, less consumption, less work, less of everything. Since this seems anathema to everything I see and hear on the news and from other people in conversation, I think we are gonna hit the wall before changing directions. Humans only change when we hit rock bottom.

The lesson is: be somewhere safe when we hit the wall.

Maybe we can bring back local manufacturing… ?
