    Driven by the wealthy and enabled by the stupid.

    If this topic ceased to be a partisan issue, we might actually see real change and limits enforced.

    A world where pollution producers would need to price cleanup and management into their production (which would in turn incentivize cleaner alternatives).

    Where corporations might be held liable for damages from their climate or eco negligence.

    But as long as this remains an issue that the masses are going to be divided over, the world is going to burn as stupid people insist 3rd degree burns on asphalt is just part of the circle of life.
