Not even the people that pretend to care are putting in the minimum necessary effort to fight this. So where does the war in the title come from?

"War on/against x" is becoming a meaningless expression.

As far as I can see, our only real plan is: we'll invent something. The rest is just rhetoric.

We will invent things, the question is the market conditions which will allow inventions to arise and then quickly gain market share. Even with the amazing progress in solar, wind and electric batteries, it’s still not enough. We need some meaningful pricing of carbon to allow the market to solve the problem.
