Good. Next, we divest from all fossil fuel subsidies, make oil companies pay for all the mitigation and adaptation costs to deal with climate change around the world, outlaw all forms of fossil fuel lobbying (so much more work to do around this in other sectors too), freeze their assets, and make fossil company decision makers pay for their crimes against humanity and the planet at large. What have I missed?

That's a damn solid list, I would be overjoyed if even one thing from it was enacted.
