That’s according to George Monbiot, who explores the issue in this clip from his extended interview with the New Statesman.
Monbiot also proposes an alternative which he says will not only be better for the planet, but allow poorer countries a greater degree of “food sovereignty”.
Read Phillipa Nuttall’s write up of her interview with George Monbiot here:

George Monbiot is an author, environmentalist and leading thinker on the issue of climate change and the environment. He’s a proponent of the rewilding movement. His new book, Regenesis, addresses what he terms “myths” in the environmental movement against climate change, and explores new ideas for how to avoid catastrophic climate breakdown.
