  1. The government needs the private sector, hence, it cannot setup policies that will eradicate the services of the private companies. The only solution that seems feasible is for the businesses and governments to realise there is need to work together constructively to raise the level of action and ambition.

  2. If we want to reduce the effects of climate change, the things that cause it have to be addressed. Reduce the causes, reduce the effects. Given that the prevailing wisdom is that humans are changing the climate by human activities, the causes would essentially be the burning of fuels and the changing of the land. So governments would need to either themselves do things that lower the use of fuels and changes to land, or provide incentive to businesses and individuals to do so.
