Agree. It's the onset of the problem that makes it tricky to judge what will happen. Look at the response to the effects of chlorofluorocarbon gasses on the ozone layer. Relatively swift, united action to ban their use, despite having the producers like DuPont doing everything they could to avoid measures, or at least question the fact that CFC gasses were causing something catastrophic. (https://timharford.com/2022/11/cautionary-tales-the-inventor-who-almost-ended-the-world/ https://timharford.com/2022/11/cautionary-tales-the-inventor... gives a good insight in the process) I think we're witnessing a similar dynamic with global temperature rises and greenhouse gasses. In this case though, the ones who are negatively affected by preventive measures are the people instead of 1 big company, the cause-effect is disputed more and the onset before we really see the consequences is way longer. Frog, boiling pot, more room for dispute and friction.
