When you walk into your doctor's office and they give you bad news about your health, unless your case is terminal, the diagnosis almost always comes with treatment options.
Behind the scenes, central, regional and local government are working on both the "diagnosis" and "treatment" options for climate change. However, working up climate change solutions can involve long lead times. So what ends up happening is that we are being drip-fed the first part of the process – work on the diagnosis – without there having been time to formulate clear treatment options.
