"There's a couple of psychological elements that are embedded in your thought about climate change. One is we have to expand the timeline. And we often think about things in months and years as opposed to decades. And that's a big challenge of how human brains operate. And so if you think in the context of quarters, if you work in an organization, of in terms of building cars or building houses or building factories, then you're not thinking about that 20 years from now, you'll no longer be in the red, you'll be in the black in terms of income. But as you said, there has to be a collective willingness where we're willing to sacrifice the short-term, cheaper things for the expensive things, for clean air now, knowing that the only way it gets cheaper over the course of time is the commons. Is that the commons decide is that we are going to spend money to make money later, by spending money, we can actually continue to improve the technology. So it becomes cheaper and cheaper to have solar-powered households, electric cars, and infrastructure that supports electric cars that happen there.”
