Really though the biggest problem is that our economic and political systems require growth as a policy. This means individuals incur invisible climate costs regardless of their personal habits, simply by participating in a currency scheme that is driven by deficit spending. This is true whether that deficit is used to fund bombing people halfway around the world, or social programmes at home alike. The idea that the government can borrow money to fund a green revolution (that will mostly soak the already rich/politically connected) is laughable, because it misses the very hidden flaw in its premise (that the act of sovereign borrowing is the cause of the problem in the first place). In principle capitalism itself is not the primary ecological problem; capitalism could extract profits in a closed non exponential system by exploiting gradients in efficiency incumbent with technological improvements. That could even incentivise climate improvement. It's when there is a secular incentive to mindlessly grow that capitalism becomes a menace.
