Will Climate Change Get the Same Treatment as the Covid-19 Pandemic?

A group of UK scientists, in an online forum, have strongly suggested that the response to the Covid-19 outbreak needs to be replicated when it comes to the potentially more dangerous problem of climate change (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/28/coronavirus-tackle-climate-crisis-and-poverty-with-zeal-of-covid-19-fight-scientists-urge). Whilst wholly agreeing with their sentiments, I just can't see this happening. I suspect that when the virus problem is (hopefully) cracked, there will be a rush to get the economy working again (to pay for the eye-watering 'cost') and that corners will be cut. Short-termism will rule again?
