> There is just no democratic support for fixing global warming since it's too expensive. There is no democratic support for fixing global warming in a capitalist system geared towards extracting value. If you ask people if they think global warming should be tackled in principle you will find many in support. The problem is that most people know that the way in which a fix for global warming would be implemented today would result in them bearing the costs while some shareholders somewhere get just a little richer. If we want to stop humanity from extinction we have to step off the gas pedal and disincentivize those who keep wanting to step on it.
