When I visualize Bjorn Lomborg’s “Indonesia 2100 should have the same GDP per capita as Denmark now” future, I start to glow on the inside. There are many things about LW that give me that glow. I just wish I were better at expressing the glow at the right times without sounding weird about it.
I think that’s lowballing it by a wide margin. If Indonesians in 2100 only live as well as the Danes now, some catastrophe hit the earth in the interim.

I think it’s highballing it by a wide margin. There’s no way that much cheap energy can possibly be available.
Why not? The most obvious possibility is fusion reactors.
