what do you think it would take to achieve a global absolute decoupling?
I think we’d need a global renewable manufacturing industry that could produce/distribute/install renewables faster than the rate of energy consumption increase – and that this industry would, itself, need to be powered by renewables.
Is that the sort of thing you have in mind?
