re: The mass freakout over Bret Stephen's climate change article on NYT

China is taking steps to improve their emissions situation. Every country is really, it's just happening very slowly. The big obstacle to international cooperation that can address this matter in a serious way is the denial in the United States which prevents any significant agreement from getting through Congress.

Converting to non-carbon forms of energy really isn't that hard. Prices for solar and wind electricity are starting to dip below those for coal, and there's been very little investment in it so far. It would create a ton of jobs too - in research, manufacturing, engineering, and so on.
