Climate change whether natural or man made or both is real. The question is now is how to mitigate it?? So I ask you Reddit if you had full control over the world how would you???

So there can be little doubt the globe is going through a climate shift. Glaciers are melting, record heat, stronger storms, and islands in the Pacific needing to be evacuated due to rising sea levels and so on and so on. Regardless of whose fault it is. Nature or human or both. Why isn't this our main quest or objective as a species??? Sea levels WILL rise. Look what happened to Doggerland. This will mean there will have to be mass relocations away from coastal areas. History has a way of repeating itself. We need to make society more resilient to natural disasters. Come on! It is the freaking 21st century!!! If we get another carrington event this wil cripple the power grids. This of course isn't related to climate change, but my point is we sent people to the moon. We did it in less than 10 years. Yes it was nationally based but it was an achievement of humankind. Lets get that spirit again lets work together to create safe zones to harden and mitigate our infrastructure. Otherwise we are leaving it all up to chance or what ever you believe.

So I ask you Reddit if you were in control of all of civilization how would you mitigate climate change???

Edit:Wow downvotes?
