Of course, this is only one climate cultist, but, then, we’ve seen lots and lots of cultists take the same viewpoint many, many times
De-growth only solution to tackle climate change: Expert
The problem of climate change cannot be solved without tackling earth’s growing human population, which gives rise to greater consumption and carbon emissions, according to a climate scientist.
Known as the greatest threat to the planet, the climate crisis is exacerbated by growing pressure from the human population, while it continues to increasingly affect the planet’s inhabitants.
In an interview with Anadolu Agency, Levent Kurnaz, a professor at the Center for Climate Change and Policy Studies at Istanbul’s Bogazici University, described the link between climate change and the humans as “two cycles” instead of one “vicious circle.” (big snip)
The only solution to tackle climate change is de-growth, not only economically but also de-growth of the population, he stressed.
As a theory that criticizes economic growth, de-growth is based on various frameworks, including political ecology, ecological economics, and environmental justice.
Reiterating the cycles of the growing population and climate change, he said: “Both cycles need to be broken … even if we leave aside all our consumption habits, and keep what we eat at a minimum, if the human population rises to 20 billion, this problem will continue.”
“On one hand, we need to restrain population growth around the world, and on the other, we need to restrain consumption per capita,” he said.
What’s missing from the climascreed is exactly how we are to restrain or “de-grow” the population and the economy. Most climate cultists avoid explaining how they want this type of stuff to be implemented. Are we to go with a China style one-child policy? Or just restrict people from having children altogether (especially Warmists)? Or are we to kill off humans? Maybe just let those who are sick die instead of saving them?
How about the economy? How do they de-grow it? They just don’t like to say that this really means putting the government in complete control, owning the economy and the means of production. Limiting your choice in purchasing, what you can own, what you can buy. Knocking the economy back to the 1700’s.
So, Levent Kurnaz, using all of the resources of our current technology — as a professor in
ConstantinopleIstanbul, he is one of the elites there, far more than he would be in a Western city — to tell other people that they must live more poorly, and have fewer children.Thing is, the poorer they are, the more children people tend to have. The less you have, the more important sex as recreation becomes, and, shockingly, more sex means more children.
We’re an ever expanding species dominating a system of limited resources and capacity.
Know who else wanted to de-growth the population?
