I'm convinced the US is going to spend effectively nothing on climate change on a federal level. Instead some time in the future (a decade?) the US will go all in on geoengineering. Libs will not only be happy back at brunch - they'll be lecturing us on how the most complicated, most risky, most challenging, most vital engineering problem in human history isn't actually that big a deal. Also - are we going to vote? Yes, the GOP wins at ~98% on every election but voting is still important symbolically.
I thought Biden and the dems would eventually pass a symbolic amount on climate. $50B to $100B? And in theory it's still possible they could pass something before the elections. But when Schumer says he nearly has Manchin "on board" that's just dem PR so the dems can claim that at least they tried.
wealthy people go to the cold areas, black rock buys up all the property, most of us are homeless, there is nowhere to go, millitary police everywhere, prodding us and beating us, they feed us literal poison in homeless encampments or inject us with something, most of us die from this or infections, some new pandemic that would have been completely treatable, this is how it's probably going to go down
