The truth...
In many places in the world, politicians are not elected to be leaders but rather representatives of the will of the people who elected them. And a lot of people do not want to give the government massive power because of climate concerns. They're voting for their wallets. And the representatives represent the will of the people. I understand a lot of Europe votes for climate-aware representatives, but much of the world just wants to have food on the table.
