Convert all luxury manufacturing to solar and wind power, where possible, and start training people to build and maintain them. Put alternators on every treadmill and exercise bike. Strip them out of cars if you have to. The point is as much to drive home the desperation as it is to generate power. Recover every joule everywhere you can. Not every factory, not every resource can be a part of this, but where factory owners object, take them out of the picture however you see fit.

No more fast fashion disposable tech bullshit. Everything should be built to last.

Kill the wealthy. They could probably be coerced into joining civilization, but it will take too long and they will do too much damage. The lives lost and existential threat that time would take simply is not worth it. The ones who just come over should absolutely be spared; prince linpopo was a better outcome than princess anastasia, and should be a goal where possible. If mark zuckerberg is immediately willing to be a (closely watched) creepy doll-man who jacks off to the roman empire and lives in a 1 bedroom above his dojo/arena; I say let him. Making an example of the ones who won't or can't be trusted may be necessary.

No new gas cars, no new coal or oil infrastructure. No exceptions. Enforce this violently if you have to. The governments are owned, you will noy get them on board.

Build and retrofit nuclear. There will be disasters. They will suck. Put our best and brightest on this to minimize the risk. Its not a forever fix, but it will buy us time while we figure out load balancing.

Switch to trains and nuclear/wind barges. No new asphalt roads. Sorry, they're just not energy efficient. Start tearing up city streets for trolleys and urban freight rail. Don't ask, beyond calling 811, and your engineer or foamer friend for expert advice and standards. Plan and execute. If you keep to trolleys, they won't be heavier than modern trucks, and things like weight concerns won't factor in-you and your friends can do this with hand tools if necessary, like they did 150 years ago.

No more air travel. No more frivolous air freight or next day shipping, unless somebody cones up with some very cool logistics. Maybe we can bring in hyperefficiemt solar gliders, or some sort of hybrid PV air ship in a few years, once we've sorted food and power out. Wouldnt that kick ass?

No more beef or pork for a while. I know. Shit's gonna be lean for a few years. Fuck I'm gonna miss cheese. Keep enough cows and pigs alive to breed them back, work on greening that shit however we can until we can get some amount of it back. Our grandkids should have cheeseburgers. Maybe us in fifteen years. Cut down on chicken and fish.

Generally fix agriculture. This monoculture shit where we adapt the natural world to our machines? It's not earth friendly, its not sustainable, and its not even that healthy long term.

No more "artificial intelligence" or fucking crypto bullshit.. That shit guzzles resources we desperately need, and it provides no value. Let the computer scientists keep working on crap that isn't a dead end. Give free liberated gpu's to every gamer, just to fuck with the fossil lobby's political base, and have enough left over for super computers, should we need them for stuff.

Tell capitalism to fuck off. Stop accepting money. Start doing stuff because you believe in it in your spare time. Maybe steal shit, when it's held by corporations instead of people, just to grate at the taboo. Thus isn't just because I already wanted to do it; the ideology of ownership-as-value will always tend towards cheating, conflict, exploitation, and stagnation. There's no more time to fuck around with that shit, and also:

Be inclusive. No I mean it; this isn't just hippie shit. Every person you leave behind or exclude is a weakness, is someone with no reason not to undermine you. Whether you exclude them for a disability, their birth place, or any demographic info, you should fucking consider if its worth the cost. It's better to have some folks who eat 2000 calories a day and live in a studio apartment. Let the old folks find ways to give people purpose (should they want it), maybe tell stories or help watch kids.

Stop tolerating violence in defence of the old order. Thats anti homeless sweeps and traditional militaries.

Get fucking organized. Find people who know how to do stuff, and find the shit they need to do it. Find people with nothing better to do and find any task you can offer them; nobody likes doing nothing for too long.

Fix everything. Find the little wastes. Streaming 'the office' ten times a year is a waste when you could just download it. Dont ask permission when a corporation is involved.
