I love how well you made that argument, although I am as disillusioned as your other respondent.
Another problem is that countries are also in a global economic competition.
The legislative frameworks still do not keep the costs of destroying the planet from being so low that doing so is an economic imperative.
- wbsss4412 5y agoThere are challenges with every policy option and you bring up an important one. However, that is not a universal obstacle to all policy solutions. Getting people to electrify their homes has minimal impact on global economic competition. Changing urban planning regimes has little (direct) impact on global economic competition. I’m not trying to imply it is easy. But it is still a choice that we can make is we can coordinate ourselves. I think the biggest challenge is simply the degree to which hyper individualism has taken over American culture and its effect on our collective psyche.
