Hi
One thing we need to look at is that 1 percent of the world’s population is responsible for
50 percent of the greenhouse gas pollution. So part of the problem is that the affluent
people of the earth have not acknowledged their primary responsibility in causing the
problem and in solving the problem. Once we can agree to that, then we can look at the major obstacles.
Does it mean: once we consent to this fact that they do not take responsibility and do not want to solve the problem, then we can look at the major obstacles?

Newguest Once we can agree to that, then we can look at the major obstacles.Does it mean: once we consent to this fact that they do not take responsibility and do not want to solve the problem, then we can look at the major obstacles?The writer made a mistake. He meant "once we agree on that". "Concur", not "consent".
