Companies need to convert any greenhouse gas emitting energies to renewable sources as soon as possible. Countries need to adopt alternative energies as well.
China makes some of the most inexpensive solar panels globally; its cost to replace fossil fuels with renewable energies should be easier than most other countries.
This problem should have been solved half a century ago by identifying renewable energies and automobiles with drastically reduced CO2 emissions. It is not 1960s anymore and the urgency has never been greater. Not to appear ungrateful, but, time is of the essence. No more waiting. The very citizens in countries need relief from this monsterous climate.

world’s largest companies — and brands — announced their commitment on
Tuesday to cutting carbon emissions and participating in practices that
would support sustainable energy.
Speaking at The New York Times Energy for Tomorrow conference, being held in concurrence with the international climate talks outside Paris, executives from a number of companies said they accepted the need to help reduce the carbon dioxide emissions blamed for global warming.
Also, representatives of the Chinese government, the world’s No. 1 carbon emitter, released new climate goals that called for a substantial buildup of alternative energy sources like wind and solar.
To be sure, the executives were self-selective, agreeing to appear on panels because of their interest in embracing climate goals, which are being intensely discussed by representatives of 195 countries at a converted airplane hangar north of Paris in Le Bourget. The deadline for a deal is Friday....
