There is unwillingness to accept sacrifice, and that limits what government will do. I think that we should have spent more time pursuading people of the moral importance of defeating climate change. Dry arguments about science are not effective enough. Of course government intervention is absolutely necessary. Without guaranteed payments it would have been impossible for large scale renewables to start up. The government created the market. And that volume of construction has reduced costs. Also, China has built more solar and wind power than anyone. And they have an active nuclear program. And their per-capita CO2 emissions are about half that of the USA.
