   I'm currently reading Kohei Saito's "Slow Down (How Degrowth Communism Can Save The Earth") in which he makes the compelling case that capitalism and avoiding climate disaster are fundamentally incompatible.

   BP is reinforcing his arguments quite forcefully.

     @mario Do you know was it originally written in English?
     I'm struggling to find it in Japanese.

     @AnthoDerv no, it seems to be originally in Japanese, the edition I am reading was translated into English by Brian Bergstrom.
     Looking at the paperback now, it says "first published in Japan by Shueisha Inc., Tokyo in 2020" but I can't see anything else.
