Most discussions about the future start from "business as usual", but due to many already known facts, the climate crisis cannot be solved with unchanged growth.
Since many of our politicians believe we can outgrow climate change, I will give them this idea.
Our government will spend billions and billions on future nuclear power plants, but no one is talking about resource distribution - Use the money for public electric cars and free public transport instead.
It is time to understand that our resources are not eternal and that Earth Overshoot Day in Sweden already takes place in April (when Sweden has used a globe).

Nucleair energie is not and should never be seen as the ultimate energy source of the future as the energy sources used to generate that nuclear end result is also an earthbound material and it’s providence is getting limited, as Afghanistan, Australia and only a couple of other countries can deliver Uranium nowadays. On the contrary a new way of energy production by for example, using the sunlight, which can be harvested anywhere on earth without costs, and increasing it’s energy efficiency by thousands and thousands times in a maybe super-photovoltaic way, in order to use and to accumulate that energy in many sizes as Direct Sunlight Energy Providers, useable from a mobile phone unto a complete energy central feeding a whole city. Why not ?
