Abstract Robbins concludes his exchange with Gomez-Baggethun by remarking that ‘there is a great deal to chew here, especially with regard to the way the degrowth community attempts to thread the needle between ethical limits and Malthusian scarcity’ (emphasis in the original). In explaining their positions on degrowth, both authors refer to my book on limits (Kallis, 2019). In Robbins's spirit of clarifying differences between ecomodernism and degrowth, I explain here my thesis on limits, while acknowledging that I do not speak for the degrowth community, as will become apparent from my differences with Gomez-Baggethun.
