    There are four ways forward:

    1. Corporations choose willingly to reduce emissions (and probably die in the process as their prices are no longer competitive)
    2. ALL corporations band together to reduce emissions
    3. ALL consumers band together to purchase only from corporations that have low or no emissions
    4. Government forces consumers and corporations to reduce emissions.

    So in the real world, there is only one way forward.
