This is why I get angry that whenever I complain on Reddit about climate change because of massive heatwaves someone said "just emigrate north lmao". Neoliberals are deluded, we have to solve the problem, period.
"Solve" was 20 years ago. Now it's only "mitigate". But that's the difference between global catastrophe and literal breakdown of organized society.
We could solve global warming right now with intentional cloud seeding, but many are worried geoengineering could be too effective and freeze us. Or, if we solve the heating, it could give fossil fuels the wrong impression that they can keep pumping CO² into the air despite it still killing the oceans with carbonic acid.
