    I agree we likely need to downsize a lot of our daily conveniences (yeah fuck cars!) But I’d urge against trying to envision the solution before working on solving the problem. Saying we need to resort to subsistence farming in communities - why? We create food on a massive scale currently, and tons of it go to waste. Additionally so much of agriculture is lost to inefficiency through the meat industry.

    Surely it would make more sense to focus on those two levers first before resorting to what sounds like feudal society.

    Not looking to debate details, just urging a rational and realistic approach through steps that are achievable.
