Climate policy crisis
So we do not have a climate crisis, but a climate policy crisis. This also applies to the energy crisis. The general public's trust in the government is the main reason for the modest impact of climate critics. As long as citizens continue to trust the government, these critics don't stand a chance.

Clintel's message is not only about incorrect climate models, but also about an incompetent government that thinks everything is feasible. That is what the two books by Guus Berkhout are about.

He shows that in everyday life the government wants to prescribe, administer and control the behavior of everything and everyone with the naive belief that everything can be made. Consider the behavior of the Earth's climate, the behavior of ecosystems and the behavior of our diverse society. Attempts to prescribe all these complex behaviors in detail ('protocolling') have led to a proliferation of absurdly complicated regulations. Berkhout calls this “anthropogenic complexity”.

Guus Berkhout's books have everything to do with 'the climate', namely that 'the climate' cannot be made. That €35 billion will not have any measurable effect on the Earth's climate, but it will make us poorer and cause chaos on the power grid.
