Sadly Al, the governments are not acting long-term for the Earth & all Her many lifeforms, they're only acting for short-term political gain, & there are major lobby groups, acting on behalf of the oil & auto industry, that are brow beating governments into not acting. No one government has yet taken the step to mitigate CC/GW. Think of all the tax revenue that would be lost if we bought less petrol, cars etc.
