That's interesting, but it doesn't surprise me. I've heard nothing but good things about New Zealand.
Ofc, I'm not really looking at it as something for me. The really bad effects are going to hit after I'm dead, with the possible exception of the oil crisis. It's more a case of I want us to make sacrifices now so we don't create obscene levels of suffering for future generations beyond what we already have. A different brand of flattening the curve, if you will.
The pandemic is actually a really good analogy for it IMO. I think humanity will take action when it becomes obvious that it's about to get really bad. It's just that by the time that happens, the bill won't take years to pay, but generations/centuries, and those who are alive then will rightfully curse us and wish they could have it as good as we do.
