I try to look for the silver lining. If we were to head down the path that Trump was on - denying Covid and Global Warming, surely USA and humanity as a whole would soon suffer greatly in the not-to-distant future. However, if the world's two largest economies (and polluters) can come to terms, there are ways to correct humanities' course.
In China, their authoritarian system can impose strict regulations to control the massive population. However, in the States it requires a little more finnese. Controlling the media can control minds. If we can learn anything from the worldwide response in combatting Covid, perhaps the same measure can be taken in kind to save our environment. In the West it would require renewed faith in reason, separating fact from fiction, not denial nor dissention.
