>You have to price those externalities pretty damn high to cancel out two centuries of exponential improvements and growth.
Improvements and growth to what? I'd say only quantity and quality of life counts.
And if the increments of quantity and quality of life are offset by biblical sized climate destruction and the death/life cut short of millions and impact (in worsening life conditions) to billions (which might last for centuries), it might very well not be worth it.
>We simply aren’t all going to die from climate change.
"Not all going to die" is a pretty low bar though...
