    The problem is that at any point we could have dealt with it, but greed seems to be preventing that to the point that we may need a miracle tech breakthrough that is so great, that fixing this issue would be trivial.

      Dealing with climate change isn’t a binary either/or thing, there’s a huge range of potential outcomes we could fall into. Suffice to say that the more we do to reduce pollution now the better things will be in the future, even if we’ve missed our chance to completely avoid significant warming. We’ve only barely invested in renewable energy and it’s still having a massive impact on emissions.

        I agree, we are still making important renewable advancements that are being used more and more.
