The problem is we spent all our money on scientists studying global warming. Had we split the spending between studying global warming and studying how to propagandize people into caring about / believing global warming we would have spent half the money and solved the problem by now.

Take my country, Canada, for example. If you think about all the money and blood we poured into WW2 and you compare it to what it would cost to move to a carbon neutral economy it just pales in comparison. It's like laughable how fixable this is. WW2 was like 30 global warmings. So why didn't people balk in the 30s and 40s?

Because they cared and they believed they could do something about it. I feel like the world has this sludge about it these days. Almost nobody does anything anymore. They kinda float around and raise taxes a point here or there. We more than doubled them to fight the Nazis.

I can kinda see why Elon Musk is freaking out and building five different companies trying to save the world.
