Governments will fail. Wherever unpopular "Green" Measures are implemented, the right-wing cockroaches appear, destroying any discourse.
The consequence will be a global war by stupid populists who think that is one solution (which it kind of is,... Dead people won't emit CO2)
In the Netherlands a number of cities were banning fossil fuel for deliveries in the city. It was in planning for years, easing into implementation.
Our new government just scrapped all of those plans because the largest party doesn't believe in climate change, and another party in the coalition is the "farmer's movement" party and opposes environmental regulations.

Something kinda funny about people in the netherlands not caring about climate change.
It's probably not very funny to all the people in the Netherlands who are not right-wing idiots. Sounds like the Netherlands are experiencing something like Florida: when the problems get really urgent and bad, half the population fights hard to prevent action and preserve their delusion that everything's fine.
