This article from CNBC, of all places, describes the trend in climate protests devolving into a purely political wedge issue that favors anger over solutions.

If the activists protesting right now could get the most serious climate change threats eliminated, but without politically defeating President Trump and Republicans and/or putting the big oil companies out of business in the process, would they still be interested in the cause?"Protesters and their politician counterparts are shifting focus from personal conservation efforts(Think Globally, Act Locally) to strictly attacking businesses but ignoring business's strong incentives to profit by providing solutions.
"Natural gas is cheaper and produces 50% fewer emissions than coal, nuclear power has been modernized and made much safer in recent decades while producing no emissions. For-profit entities like a company called Carbon Engineering are working on machines that literally suck carbon emissions out of the atmosphere."

The entities behind their angry climate-protesting front-people are seeking money(taxes) that they would ultimately profit massively from(doling out solution-funding money but keeping most of it) instead of profitable solutions by uncompromised entrepreneurs or companies whose profits they can't dip their hands into.
Are the Rothschilds, for example(see book below), interested in anything they can't personally profit grandly from?
