And our governments are beholden to the rich because they can offer the best bribes.
Until the rich feels threatened by the climate catastrophe, nothing will happen or change.
Although we are seeing the first economic fallout from climate change, so there’s a slim chance. The rich are going to see their precious economic growth slow and eventually stall. I don’t know how they’ll react to that.
Maybe they’ll all flee to New Zealand. Or some other remote location. I doubt SpaceX is going to offer any way out for anyone but the musky chodelet.
I guess the rich’s reaction depends on whether they think their hideaway will afford them the same privilege as they currently have. Maybe they’ll try to bootstrap an Elysium like refuge on the moon if it’s predicted that even New Zealand won’t be safe from climate induced collapse.
The good news is, they will start to feel it. Fix this shit now is becoming more and more mainstream. Just wait until sea rise consumes their costal mansions. Just wait until a hurricane destroys their self insured Manhattan sky scraper. Just wait until an EF5 tornado wrecks their middle of nowhere mansion. We won’t be waiting long.
We had the extra luxury beach resort owned by the family of our tourism Ministry (sounds like a conflict of interest but she wasn’t in charge then) destroyed by a hurricane, but the climate change scepticism of the government per se remained untouched.
Your reasoning assumes they are intelligent enough to understand concepts like causation or correlation. They aren’t.

Nothing is safe and there is nowhere you can go.
Everything is connected in this web we call home.
The fire just ignited, its the beginning of the show.
No one will escape this tomb we’ve made home.
