Kyle, I came here to say thank you.

I recently made the comment that economists don't belong in the conversation on the climate crisis bc the goals of effectively addressing the climate crisis and of economists are mutually exclusive - being that one is to slow or (preferably) end growth and the other is to push for endless growth.

Until now, I wasn't aware there was such a thing as an environmental economist.

Since discovering your account and reading your posts, I realize I was wrong.

Your observations and writings are spot on, and we need more economists like you in the conversation.

I apologize for my earlier blanket statement, for opening my eyes on this subject, and I thank you for the work you do. 🙏
