    Countries with sovereign currencies have no financial restraints. e.g. Australia, Japan, USA, UK NZ. They do have resource constraints. I'm not sure how the euro works.

    Awesome ... a really smart young guy with a real climate crisis solution. On paper anyway. How to actually make the shift a popular move?? Not likely with the Baby Boomer mindset.

    Our Western Civilisation today is an injured animal - cannot tolerate realising - it has foolishly destroyed almost all fossil fuel reserves in 150 years to the ground - for nothing…
    Our outgoing Western Civilisation today is an injured, wounded and dangerous animal - that cannot tolerate listening to anybody - only escaping forward…
    Traumatised, out of the last ice age, the European mind dealt with exploiting fossil reserves - like no tomorrow - unwilling to hear a word from sunshine-latitudes on any of their ages-old Wisdom - “And neither allow thy hand to remain shackled to thy neck, nor stretch it forth to the utmost limit [of thy capacity], lest thou find thyself blamed, or even destitute” - Quran
    Treating the World as children, playing a nanny Civilisation - has been the wrong path for the West to take, since Jevons in the 1860s, at the latest - destroying all fossil reserves in a blink of an eye - when it should have lasted 3000 years - plus.
    Time to let people understand how harsh are the Laws of Nature - and let them having a real future - rather than playing a nanny Civilisation, a fake Invisible-Hand, a fake Social-Engineer, imprisoning them inside a vicious, theatrical, synthetic and nonsense Hollywood-style cockfight show, a reality of an - Energy Musical Chairs Game…
    A real future that has not been pre-decided, turned a dead history before it was even born - burning finite fossil fuels to waste in - killing the future…
    Nikola Tesla, Einstein, Huxley, Orwell, Turing and Timothée Parrique should be forgiven for thinking their systems can last forever - finite fossil fuels are dangerously hypnotic to humans and their mental capacity.
    Humans were not ready morally, ethically and intellectually to start the mass extraction of fossil fuels with the advent of the steam engine 300 years ago.
    The Magna Carta requires now overhauling - adding to it the right for humans to understand what Energy really is;
    “In any system of energy, Control is what consumes energy the most.
    Time taken in stocking energy to build an energy system, adding to it the time taken in building the system will always be longer than the entire useful lifetime of the system.
    No energy store holds enough energy to extract an amount of energy equal to the total energy it stores.
    No system of energy can deliver sum useful energy in excess of the total energy put into constructing it.
    This universal truth applies to all systems.
    Energy, like time, flows from past to future”.
