A Thought from Carl Sagan

In a recent post, China Lies at the Crux of the Effort to Mitigate Climate Change, I mentioned the primary impediment to our efforts to mitigate climate change, i.e., that our political and economic world is divided into 200+ sovereign nations, each of which is essentially on its own to prioritize, fund, and implement what strategies it sees fit–if any.

Until I came across the quote here from the late Carl Sagan, I was unaware that he shared this viewpoint.
