It has been estimated that to get the planet back on track over a seven year period would cost $750 trillion. That would include dealing with all the sanitation problems of the third world, all the basic food issues, atmospheric pollution. While it seems a huge amount, it’s what the world collectively spends on defence each year. We’ve got the money. We choose not to do it because it’s not in the best interests of the politicians we have.
