I see no hint of anyone changing their behavior in the least, esp. as regards to cars, heating, air conditioning, etc.
Many comments blame "politicians", but politicians are voted in by people. Nobody on the planet is willing to give up an inch of comfort today in the hope of avoiding disaster in the distant future.
In a way, this is the ultimate installment of the tragedy of the commons.
