The problem is unregulated capitalism across the entire world. We can solve any problem, but it's too expensive so we don't. The answers are easy, but convincing the billionaires is impossible.

The driving force of capitalism is very potent, but it generates both parasites(billionaires) and suffering. The socio democratic system with high tax brackets coupled with low level democracy can work imo.

But well, good luck implementing that in todays world.

Your last words are exactly the problem. There are solutions to everything, but the problem is the ever-present person who doesn't like it.

Just the usual fossil shill disinformation. Energy generation is going to go up once we've made the switch to renewables and energy is going to get cheaper.
