Over my life I've seen the Overton window on this debate move from:

> Global warming isn't real.

To:

> Global warming is real, but it's not our fault.

To:

> Global warming is our fault, but it's too expensive to fix.

To, finally, sentiments like this. Summarized as:

> Global warming is out fault and we could fix it. But why bother, it's too far gone already.

At this point pessimism has set in. I'm just tired. COVID showed us that the capacity for personal sacrifice in western nations is very low indeed. I don't expect anyone will want to do anything about global warming if it threatens their job, hobbies, or investments. Long term consequences be damned.
