That's only because externalities haven't been included in the pricing. What about the $14t that it will take to relocate people displaced by rising oceans? The repair costs from the increasingly-common severe weather events? There are real costs of climate change that aren't being accounted for and will have to be paid by future generations.

Sure, by future generations. Do you think we're suddenly going to start pricing in the externalities of the whole world for train tickets?

The market won't do this, it's human behavior.
