Was Climate Change the Greatest Financial Scandal in History?

Environmental scholar Bjorn Lomborg recently calculated that across the
globe, governments have spent at least $16 trillion feeding the climate
change industrial complex.

And for what?

True, you could argue that. It would not make it so.

dude u can't read. nor think critical. in the slightest tbh. maybe smoke
more weed and less fucking crack eh???

that's total spend, not just govts, over the past 20 years. and it
includes ludicrous things like the electrified transit as if paying for
new electric buses vs new fossil fuels ones is a cost over fossil fuels

and in comparison, we easily spent double that on fossil fuels subsidies
over the same time frame directly, with implicit costs being *much*
higher due air pollution and environmental damage (potentially >$100
trillion in net economic costs over that time frame)
