I would question your assertion that we all know there is a problem. I imagine the vast majority of people don't. They may be vaguely aware of climate change, but most people just think surely it can't be serious and it'll be ok, we'll work it out when it does become a problem.
Just the other day the UK courts have dismissed any attempt at blocking an extra runway at Heathrow airport. We need this runway to increase the number of flights out of the UK. Good for the economy etc.. If that isn't a symptom of the vast majority of people being in complete denial I don't know what is.
Actionable solution no. 1.. don't build more runways.
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoThe law is the law. The courts can only uphold and interpret what's written. So before we can get to no more runways we need governments that react appropriately to the problem, and build climate change and environmental consequences into laws. Strong laws that restrict and tax carbon, building regulations, transport, well everything.
