The most powerful Governments in the western world do not have money to slow down skyrocketing poverty, obesity and homelessness. Yet, claim by using your 50 to 100 trillion dollars by 2050 they can change the temperature by 1 degree. Can't begin to imagine that.

For sure electric cars or 15-minute cities won"t work neither.[iea.org]

What happened to hemp and steam engines. Henry Ford made a car out of hemp and fueled it on hemp for 25% cheaper and much cleaner.
Those governments do have the money to deal with those three issues you mentioned at the beginning, but they choose not to. In the case of the US, they would rather spend it on the military budget and tax cuts for the rich and corporations. I assume it is also like that, but not as extreme, with many other western nations, with some exceptions, like the Scandanavian countries..
That alone cutting military budget and tax cuts for the rich corporations. Would easily solve most of the economy and social problems. Smaller countries are more controlable yet many are getting suck into by WEF, UN, WHO and one world agendas. In 5 years Canadain rent and cost of a house has doubled and most Canadain are broke. Wail the wealthy have doubled their profits, something going to collapse hard.
@Castlepaloma The economy is working the way it's supposed to, sucking wealth from the lower classes and funneling it up to the rich and corporations. They own the pols, so they get what they paid for.. Sucks to be a peasant..
Most of my life, I was middle class, meansing doing most of the work and paying most of the taxes and on credit. Learning to settle into middle poor and a little happier for it refused to be a slave and to not love my work.
@Castlepaloma Same way that lifting the cap on how much income is taxed for SS with rich people, would immediately and permanently solve the solvency problems of SS. In fact, it would allow much higher benefits to be paid to most workers. But it will never happen, and both major parties oppose it, because their rich donors have no intention of providing a good retirement income to their workers, much less the workers who toiled for some other employer than them.... That's because, to them, we are all just as replaceable and inhuman as the machines they would like to replace us with. To be thrown in the trash as soon as we are no longer useful or productive for them, so why, they ask, should they have to pay anything for our retirement?
