In this chapter, Rand explores the variety of conflicting ideologies and approached to tackling climate change. These include techno-optimists, anti-capitalists and ecomodernists. Rand argues that no one ideology presents an optimal, or even workable, solution. He concludes by suggesting that a new approach is needed, that is compatible with human society and tendencies.
