While the predicted impact on children and the aged is extremely disconcerting how can you (or your author of the prediction) put the entire blame on the producers of fossil fuels when the whole economy depends on that source of energy?? China and India are opening 10 plus NEW mines each year. Even in New Zealand just look at the 8 lanes totally full with cars and trucks morning and night burning the product you want the oil producers to simply close off supply. What about the Governments being responsible for the children and elderly dying from temperature rise due to fossil fuel burning?? That temperature rise is a serious problem but not in a trillion years will the countries (including NZ) will ever stop producing that energy knowing the certainty of the chaos that would cause. You have to do better than just simply identify the problem. At the very least a complete set of implications that would result needs to be identified and the consequences on the Global citizenship accompanied with solutions from which to choose from. You will be surprised as to what people will choose. As a clue which reflects peoples “Concern for others” just observe the behaviour of people when the Covid Lock Down was put in place—-All the toilet paper was stripped from shop shelves along with all tinned food —- some will never go without no matter the consequences on others less able to compete
