To be clear, we’re not stopping climate change. The climate has changed.
We want to stop climate change from destroying all of humanity. Unfortunately, many people are OK with climate change destroying some of humanity, because it doesn’t affect them.
I’m also going to quibble with “the scale we need.” What we need and what we want are two different scales, and we can’t even agree to cut back to what we need. I’m not talking about personal accountability, I’m talking about on a global scale, there’s no consensus on the need to produce or consume less. Small things we all do are great, but corporations are at the helm of the ship and they will find a way to sell iceberg chunks to chill cocktails.
