Personally, I don't want any more growth. Infinite growth is not sustainable. Developed countries are way past what's necessary for a good life.

I'd like to advocate for a slow controlled de-growth so we can reach climate agreement goals, and sustain humankind for a few more centuries, in decent living conditions.

We are far from infinite growth, no reason to worry. Maybe 10x or 100x should be enough to get everybody to stop worrying about food, housing, working? Then we can argue about slowing down.
