> But laws and elections have been singularly ineffective at stopping global warming.

...in the US. I am sorry that I keep pointing that out, but global warming is being fought by most elected leaders right now. With some moderate success. The per capita emission in the world has plateaued, despite a positive economic growth. OECD countries have seen a decrease, China seems to come close to plateau as well.

US' leaders are the ones who unilaterally pulled from Kyoto and Paris treaties.

And I mean, even in the US, CO2 emissions are diminishing, in huge parts because of environmental policies.



Well, we're talking about a US company right now.
