> Capitalism is just an economic system, it can't solve the problem, it can only incentivize endeavors that may or may not lead to the solution.
Precisely. Those "incentives" are better than the nothingness of socialist economies.
> What will the endeavor be? Sorcery? Prayer? Maybe some kind of nondescript fictional science that doesn't exist but that you put all your blind faith in?
I can't predict that, but leaving the system open to innovation from private individuals and rewarding those who solve the biggest problems is probably a good idea.
> There's an endless list of evidence that show capitalism is contributing to this problem.
Capitalism doesn't do much more other than supply demands, you could ban "demands" of harmful goods, like plastic, but that would increase costs for the average person which isn't desirable, you could degrowth as some leftists now want to save muh planet, but that won't solve the problem of neighboring right wing societies outcompeting you. The "problem" is that human demands are endless, and that is unchangeable, but it does seem that humans are also very adaptable and perhaps allowing that adaptability to take its full potential might be a better solution than restricting it through socialism and degrowth in the hopes of perhaps saving humanity by forcing it to not change or consume.
