You'd rather lower quality of land life to enable growth?

Or were you not responding to the argument that avoiding pollution is typical degrowth talk?

No. I'm saying that if the population is set to fall, we can crank resource spend per person all the way up, and enable growth that way. With a little side benefit of QoL improvements.

Which requires a massive jump in labor productivity, mind. But if the optimistic takes on AI are right, such a thing is not impossible.

We are already cranking the per person spend way up, that's why we have a trillionaire. How we do it matters and the matters that be won't allow anything other than Neo-feudalism
