We’re screwed then. The 99% can’t afford to go one to two years without an income, and the 1% simply never will because they don’t give a shit about anyone but themselves.

Simplified example: pay 6% of the population to plant trees.

That's a lot closer to why we won't do it. Because as a species we can't act for the long term.
