I don't think many people would be happy with legislating against global warming either. Legislate to use less energy, to recycle, etc. But it's hardly clear cut that we're seeing anything more than a temporary heating phase. The other point is that technology is changing so fast that by the time lawmakers understand it, things have all changed.
