We should be in planetary emergency mode right now. Even if we did stop the fossil fuel industry right now completely, we would still feel the effects for a few more decades or a century or two.

Instead, we keep going worried that we might disrupt the financial markets instead.

The stock market will still be functioning in a hundred years ...... but we'll be fighting for scraps of land and water by then.
