Well, no one has ever offered anything but pure fantasy as an argument
for the compatibility of growth and evenf the slowing down of global
warming. So if you want to claim that global warming can be stopped
wi5htin a capitalist world you have to give _some_evdience (as no one
ever has) that 

a) Capitalism can exist without further growth

b) Capitalist states will be ruled by elites dedicated tos topping
growth.


If you can't offer such arguments, the sneer above is sheer humbuiggery
masquerading as an argument.
