It is very clear that global warming is real and humans are a significant cause. The real problem is it will take worldwide cooperation and a lot of money to improve the situation. That means money being diverted from all those vested interests. In a way it is like the Illinois budget fight. Everybody knows the state is headed for bankruptcy but no one wants to be the one that has to give anything up to fix it. I suspect in both cases the problem has to become so bad it causes everybody a lot of pain before progress can be made.
