Governments, constrained by global economic competition, struggle to address the climate crisis effectively. John Bunzl offers The SIMPOL pledge, enabling citizens to vote for politicians who commit to simultaneous climate action once enough nations agree. Corporations can also sign to lower emissions.

Bunzl, with Nick Duffell, co-authored *The SIMPOL Solution*, which explores the psychological, political, and economic barriers preventing unified action on the #ClimateCrisis.
