I'll note that climate activists forced the resignation of the World Bank president in early 2023, so things may have changed significantly since 2022.
Most governments are fully owned by the oligarchy, so they're a relatively easy target to ignore the will of the people and maximise profitability on behalf of corporations.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

These headlines infuriate me. What the fuck is the headline or story gonna do? Stop them investing? Fuck no. Push goverments to legislate against them? Fuck no. The headline should, at this point just be: gov/corps aren't going to stop investing in fossil fuels, revolution is needed now.
But I suppose that's too long a headline
