1. Pretty much give up the modern way of life. Impossible. That is our pandora's box. Back to early industrial era. Electrocity only for the most basic needs, buy local food. No more imported food, entertainment, et cetera for the most part. People are advised to grow their own food when they can. This kind of extreme is pretty much impossible. Because that is the same as willingly collapse everything we have built the last 2 centuries. And that probably won't help much either.

2. Develop miraculous technology that will somehow solve our problem. Probably our best bet without total, extreme societal overhaul.

Say, the top 3 corporations probably contribute to world's carbon emission more than every single individual human beings on earth combined. It is partly of the packets of our modern way of life. Cheap electronics, all season vegetables and fruits imported from accross the globe, cheap gasoline, etc.

Even at the extreme, toppling these corporations, changing our way of life, and like if a worldwide revolution happened, whatever governing bodies that take up the position are either aren't equipped, aren't knowledgeable, or simply repeating the same cycle all over again because of human nature.

The only conclusion of how to act nowadays is basically this:

Just give up. Enjoy your life, spend times with your loved ones, be more liberal in how you spend money. I don't think my generation will enjoy retirement at age 65. Buy what you want, what you can and save for medium term.

I don't even feel motivated to work anymore or doing serious plan for the long future, because i probably won't even have a future. Why invest,save money for retirement when in 2070 all your money will be worth less than a patch of dirt to grow your potato.

Don't have kids. They will likely living their prime on a hell on earth, while we at least can enjoy life up to our mid life.

Lastly, pray to whatever deity you believe you will die before everything go to hell. If you dont believe in any, just hope you will die peacefully before that.
