I’d rather be Amish than dead!



And while I agree it's hard, I think that keeping an industrial society should be possible. (although it means reworking almost all the production apparel to be carbon neutral (concrete/steel/fertilizer production, transports, agriculture, ...). Not going to happen in the short-term without an extremely strong political push and more research, on the world scale)

Actual production may become lower than today, but I'd like to believe we don't have to go full Amish.
