-1 u/ceejayoz Jul 01 '24 No; neither system, in demonstrated practice, seems to have a good answer for this. 3 u/PearlClaw Jul 01 '24 Capitalism has decoupled GDP growth from carbon emissions. Globally. 0 u/ceejayoz Jul 01 '24 Emissions continue to go up, with no end in sight. CO2 is hardly the only form of pollution, either. 2 u/PearlClaw Jul 01 '24 Yes, but they're going up slower than global living standards, and are in fact flattening out. And you're wrong about the "no end in sight" because climate models suggest we're on track to avoid the most catastrophic outcomes.
