Is that about right? No, not really. I think that the political mobilization you have in mind won't ever happen, has not a snowball's chance in hell of happening, and it a big waste of precious time and energy trying to generate. Therefore, any time spent on that delays and reduces the opportunity for coming up with something feasible. It is irritating and counterproductive. You think that we need a solution before any of that can take place. I think part of our disagreement is with the word, "solution." I think that you think of "solution" strictly in terms of sharp curbs on greenhouse gasses from cars and factories and the like. I think of "solution" as anything that will mitigate, acclimate to, and otherwise help us survive global warming. IMO your "solution" is not feasible and we have to look beyond that. And we won't do that until and unless we recognize that it is probably unfeasible.
