Your trusted inner circle is one of the most potent and overlooked weapons to stave off the worst of climate change. Our individual actions appear small, but they act as billboards for others looking for cues on what to do in their own lives. These social comparisons can add up.

    Is there a surprisingly simple way to convince billionaires and corporations to stop polluting the planet and end their over use of fossil fuels?

      The only way I can see us stopping fossil fuels is to introduce a global levy on its extraction. It doubles every year and the proceeds are allocated to climate change mitigation projects.
