By consensus I mean an actionable agreement that propagates beyond your household's kitchen.

Globally, climate might be drifting but consensus on what needs to be done will never be reached. Small gang of seemingly nervous Europeans (even if US is forced to join) will never be able to tell China what to do (or how) with their resources.

While were are tearing ourselves up with fearmongering, China can build an underwater supersonic bullet train in like 2 months if they have to for what they care.
