In many ways, this is business as usual. Climate change is an international problem requiring international cooperation, the possibilities for which are determined by geopolitics. But this year, something more unsettling is emerging: climate change is itself beginning to impact geopolitics.
The price of our inaction is more than the cost to stop it.
Counterpoint by the powerful capitalists that choose how much action to take through their captured world governments:
The price of our inaction will be externalized and passed onto you poories when we run away to our luxury bunker tombs to sip oak aged bourbons and live out our final years nonsensically blaming your weathered corpses sitting above our heads for what we did.
Yup the age old meme / comic still applies
But as you said in this case it will be the wealthy living out the final years of the human race stocked up on the most luxurious things wondering how we ever got to that point
"If only the poors hadn’t destroyed the climate with their… laziness or something… I’d be sailing to my private island right now. I shouldn’t have spoiled them with weekends and bathroom access. I was just too good to them so they ended the world to spite me. sigh"
