Climate Crisis and the Electoral College

i feel like this comes up every year, well, every every time there's an election. The state politicians and the industry are so entwined that it doesn't seem to matter what a person wants. And i'm genuinely not sure how you deal with that problem, because it's not just cigar chomping executives in a back room. Is it getting rid of the electoral college? Is it community level stuff? State level sty ers? The start?
