    Not sure how you get that political acceptance, without its taking way too long.

      Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have any hope of this happening.

      I’m just absolutely sure that we’re not getting out of this mess unless the average centrist voter in the west stops being protective of capitalism as a knee jerk reaction.

      Unchecked capitalism is the cause of all this. As long as we put money first, there’s no mitigating this. To go from a money first to a people first mindset, the average person needs to understand and accept the root cause, and reconcile with the fact that they are a large part of the problem not through their carbon footprint or waste management skills but through their political stances and voting habits.
