Just as there is a mountain of BS funded by oil companies amongst boosters and faux-researchers saying "no problem, do nothing." There is an equal, less talked about, but massive mountain of BS pushed by radical socialists hitching their "smash the system and end capitalism" bandwagon to climate change concerns.
When you're trying to work out what constitutes good policy it makes it really, really hard to sift through and discard all this BS to work out what is likely to happen, what are the various options that can be realistically pursued and which ones make sense in terms of cost and benefit. (Would we be better off spending the resources on something else to improve the world for its people? Is this a massive spend that achieves precisely nothing and should be held in reserve to deal with consequences that will still happen regardless. Difficult questions that are forefront of any sensible policy and significantly harder with so much nonsense being peddled on all sides - wrapped in emotion, religion and righteousness - I have no solutions to offer).
