The only problem with that is that the #LimitsToGrowth will end the entire #IndustrialAge in a slow but unstoppable #collapse of modern civilisation in the escalating #polycrisis of environmental destruction, species #extinction, #ClimateChaos, #ResourceDepletion and so on.

So, it seems that technology isn't the problem. It's #HumanGreed! The #IndustrialAge happened not to make life easier for people (though it did in some ways), it was to make money selling shit to make life easier for people (without regard of the consequences -- like PFAS and plastics), and produce cheap shit to profit some fat-cat CEOs and investors. I mean technology is just using tools -- even crows know how to do that! But who is profiting from selling the *tools* that we are told will make our lives easier, faster, more convenient? We know who. People like #NikolaTesla are out there -- willing to create tools to benefit humankind and not destroy the planet. But unfortunately, there are far more #Edisons out there!
