Episode notes

Society is too focused on diagnosing and trying to eliminate what it hates, instead of saving what it loves. Rather than destroying old bad models, we should render them obsolete. For example, instead of destroying the oil industry, we should create new sustainable technologies that make fossil fuels economically unreasonable to rely on. The approach should be to create new solutions and make the old ones unusable.
