      Abolishing capitalism would be a bad move for the climate, for our people, and for the world, however much it might satisfy a bunch of Twitter jerks.

          I agree with you on that. Sign me up for the carbon tax, though.

          Impactful things that could be done at the Federal level is to restructure housing policy (change FHA insurance practices to ease multifamily development, pull back mortgage interest deductions), incentivize localities to upzone, and shift transport funding to transit, bike/ped.

          ^ do all that, but maybe don't advertise it as because of global warming. Otherwise, it might swing back and forth on the wims of dysfunctional national partisan politics.

          Capitalism isnt going to permit the kind of radical retooling of the economy necessary to prevent climate change. What's more, the costs incurred by our energy extraction simply aren't taken into account by capitalist markets. https://motherboard.vice.com/amp/en_us/article/43pek3/scientists-warn-the-un-of-capitalisms-imminent-demise?__twitter_impression=true …

          If you think capitalism can deal with this crisis then all you have do to convince the rest of us is outline how it might cut 45% of emissions in 12 years.

          Depends what we'd replace it with. If we export American capitalism to China, we are clearly all going to roast in a social media fueled climate denialism hellhole. If we imported Chinese communism here, we might actually experience increased wellbeing.
