Meaning, are we as a species at a point of technological development where if we have a global revolution tomorrow, and make it our top priority as a species, we could provide every human with:
‘ -sufficient nutritious food to eat and water to drink
‘ -comfortable housing with a reasonable about of space for everyone
‘ -electricity and sewers
‘ -productive employment
‘ -quality heathcare
‘ -education
‘ -a modest amount of the “stuff” we all like: books, TV shows, live music, coffee, etc etc
And being able to do this in a way that is environmentally sustainable and at least arrests further erosion of the climate and natural environment.
When I look out at our productive capabilities as they stand now, my gut says this is possible but I really don’t know.


We have had this conversation before, in fact.
