I mean that climate change gets used as a boogeyman to try and advance political agendas (often anti-capitalist, more often, capitalism taking advantage of fear). If there was a good solution they zeroed our carbon emissions, climate change couldn't be held over people as a threat to convince them to do stuff anymore

I'm not aware of any policy that gets put forward that could be construed as advancing a political agenda rather than addressing the problem. I run into a lot of self-described anti-capitalists, but they tend to not have any policy prescriptions other than "end capitalism" which is so vague as to be comical.
