My point is that, considering only one of the eight planet boundaries we are far out of, i.e. the GHG emissions that are still increasing now, our "forced-by-nature-degrowth" will most probably happen when it will be too late for our species and so many others to not extinguish or be heavily decimated. And, at the same time, i see "degrowth-by-our-will" as very, very improbable: i repeat: i see it very, very improbable that the people in the US, in Europe, in China, in Russia, in all these "developed" countries, and particularly those who are the greatest emitters, the upper classes, will "degrow" in numbers high enough and in times short enough to get our species out of the extinction process. That's one of the reasons why i advocate for something like this: https://bu.noblogs.org/the-necessary-socialist-international/
