I’m sorry but people are already doing that and it’s not working. Billionaires get richer, temperatures get hotter, people get poorer. The masses will tolerate literal shock collar enslavement so long as it “pays the bills” and keeps them alive, otherwise we’d actually be doing something by now. Never underestimate how much people will tolerate things getting horrible, and being that we’ve blown past the 1.5C limit this year we’re basically already fucked. Anything short of a viral trend to burn down gated communities and humiliating public executions for any and every CEO or billionaire until they get the message, to get people to understand that society functions better without them (because we do all the work), anything short of that is not enough. I’d we can’t do that to save our species and countless others, so be it.
We tolerated the dust bowl when they poisoned fruit with kerosene and the ones responsible faced zero justice. It’ll only get worse.
