Maybe the problem is more infinite waste rather than finite resources?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 20 points 3 days ago (1 children)

both waste and unsustainable resource consumption are equally problematic

Sure, I'm saying if we stop wasting so much (infinite growth, which is an oxymoron), consumption can be more easily managed.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'd argue we shouldn't base our whole society on consumption in the first place.

I don't think we're disagreeing, I think I'm failing to communicate clearly. My apologies.

I was up most of the night for reasons, and also accidentally did some other dumb stuff. Thanks for your patience.
