Step 1) Increase taxes on income above a certain level, create a floor that eliminates poverty (hunger, homelessness, etc). Continue to incentivize progress so that we continue on the path currently forged by science and technology (I don't believe this crowd requires me to expound on this)
Step 2) Use renewable energy and technology to provide "what we need and some of what we want, at no personal cost" to everyone.
Both transitions are going to be terribly painful.
