Mandating that all large parking lots be covered with solar panels is a no-brainer. Instead of the sun's energy heating the air above the blacktop, it gets turned into electricity to run air conditioners that will be used anyway.

It was rhetorical, an attempt to point out that to people who choose a very selfish value system, it really is more profitable either monetarily or to their egos, to believe that gender nonconformity is more dangerous than the climate crisis.

We have the ability to regulate them.
What's needed is the political will to do so.
And that requires us to pressure our governments to choose regulation over personal greed.

I've not had a day alone for 20 years. I don't really remember what it's like! I think if my spouse & kids went somewhere for a whole day, I'd be scared that I'd squander it.
The "battle plan" for the first 180 days of a Republican federal administration -- architected by the Heritage Institute -- would dismantle pretty much every federal program aimed at reducing emissions and managing climate change: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/04/climate/republicans-climate-project2025.html?searchResultPosition=1

It's amazing how many Republican Christians really do believe in bringing about the End of Days / End Times, because they assume they'll come out on top.
And, how many of their leaders are willing to use that to treat the globe the way a private equity uses a company it just bought: extract all value for their own benefit, leverage as much debt as possible, then just...walk away.
Top investors can do that, you know. Just walk away. They can afford to live out the remainder of their lives in comfort, in the last pockets of livability, no matter how fast they bring about the destruction of the ecosphere for the rest of us. Most of them have between 5 and 20 years left. After that is irrelevant.
This is the natural outcome of building a society on competition instead of cooperation.

They are after all the same group that let the statute of limitations run out on his first two years of documented crimes, including those centered on the 2016 elections and Turkey.

For perspective, Trump put Reality Winner in prison for five years for releasing a single document that showed Russians interfered with the 2016 elections in his favor.

Even if he claims it was only metaphorical, from a stochastic terrorism perspective it raises the bar just a little. Perhaps that is what he's really selling.
