    The solution is right in front of us. Stop burning fossil fuels. We could do it tomorrow, but we don’t want too bcz it would lower people’s quality of life, and make billionaires less rich, heavy emphasis on the later statement.

      It wouldn’t lower people’s quality of life. People who live in medium density neighbourhoods and ride bikes to work have better lives. They sleep better because it’s quiet, breathe better because there’s less pollution, don’t need to go to the gym, and get plenty of sun. Plus, no road rage. If you take public transit, you can read a book on the train. What I’m describing is the way life is supposed to be.
