      This is actually not true and reflects a pessimism that is understandable but deeply unhelpful. Now obviously it would have been great if they had started in the past, but everything we do to combat climate change now still matters. This is not an all or nothing matter, fractions of a degree equal very real differences in outcome.

      Not sure about that. I'm in Canada... we've now had some summers with temperatures getting close to, or at, 40 Celcius, and warnings to keep children and elderly indoors. A couple of summers ago, an entire town went up in flames in 20 minutes, in British Columbia -- after exceeding our hightest heat records, three times in five days. I've also noticed that areas north can be hotter. Ottawa is often hotter than Toronto; not benefiting from the 'lake effect' of being near the Great Lakes.

Then there's cannibalism, the classic "eat the rich" taken literallly. Another option is 'Walkaway' (where large parts of societyjust quite any part of society that benefits billionaires). You can't become a billionaire without assets, so a society wide lack of respect for asset ownership would also solve this problem. You can't make money from house market manipulation if nobody pays rent and nobody enforces landlord rights!
