Optimism is a political disposition and a design sensibility.
No proven resources or technologies can sustain economic growth. The status quo will plateau. To expect growth is to believe in future technologies. To expect very long-term growth is to believe in science fiction.

We should be optimistic not because our problems are smaller than we thought, but because our capacity to solve them is larger than we thought.
