My argument for the compatibility of the abundance agenda with planetary boundaries is twofold:

1.) The Malthusian trap no longer exists except in the minds of degrowthers.

2.) Green energy abundance and dense, low-VMT cities are actually a precondition of achieving net zero.

Worse than that — the degrowthers are making every effort to resurrect the Malthusian trap. It’s one of the many reasons I hate them so very much.
