I see that nuance is not something you like.
It is not because the energy would be clean and abundant that the same idiots must be repeated ad vitam æternam, whose growth is "obligatory" (linked to the monetary creation) and not necessarily desired by a population having reached a level of satisfactory life.
It seems to me that man has a say in the society he builds (in theory!
)
This is not saying "we are all screwed so we do nothing and all the better if everything collapses".
Good for what, it will explain it to me.
It is simply criminal to do nothing if you have the vision and the ability to act.

You will have to prove your words, my friend.
Prove that with clean and abundant energy, we run even faster towards a collapse, with irrefutable arguments, as you like.

This judgment only binds you, proves it.
Ahmed wrote: because on the one hand this "free energy" has all the chances of remaining a pure fantasy
Argument irrelevant since, you put yourself in the case, hypothetical certainly, its existence.
To come then to use this argument to justify your position is simply inadmissible.

Absolutely not, remain these problems:
- resources in the broad sense,
- food,
- potable water,
- pollution
- preservation of natural ecosystems
- demography (the time that the standard of living and education rise).
Your vision is very simplistic as you like to say for others.
I did say that clean and abundant energy would remove ONE thorn of the foot, not all thorns.
So much remains to be removed and since you are so quick to give lessons, since you know, show what you are able to do, made for the other thorns.
It's so much easier to say, "What's the point, we're all screwed up?"
That with people like you, supporters of this defeatist speech, paralyzed to act by fear, you will be right.
Self-fulfilling prophecy, it's called.
Ahmed wrote: we all know the consequences already.
yes and to come, if no parameters change: the collapse of the world population and ecosystems. A big poo!

Vision once again distorted by your pessimistic or depressive mental polarization, you will tell me!
Take a country like France, turn all dirty energies and replace them with clean and abundant energy.
We can be self sufficient in all but a few minerals (and then - and then when energy is abundant, recycling is no longer a problem).
Demographics are stable, except for a few populations to educate / empower.
In short, France could be a real paradise, like many countries.
There are many areas of progress in sustainability, including agriculture, the cycle of human waste, etc. .....
With a clean and abundant energy the game is far from won but it is more comfortable to continue playing (smart and not stupid, of course).
In conclusion if the energy becomes clean and abundant, I would say change your scratched disk, we go to mp3 HQ.
On the other hand if this free energy, clean and abundant does not exist where does not appear in time, it is the 2 feet on the brake that it is necessary.
"Clean and sustainable" nuclear power (its molten and thorium, not uranium and pressurized water) can play this role of clean and sustainable energy, for a time of the order of a millennium.
it does not take the way and the deadline of a contraction on the energies gets closer ...
whatever.
