People can't seem to grasp that we live on a volatile planet next to a volatile star in a volatile galaxy. The planet warms and it cools so humans like animals should focus on adapting to an ever changing environment. Climate change (formally global warming) presents a never ending opportunity for opportunist to cash in on fear mongeringYeah that's what I mean. The climate changes. Non-debatable. We are in a warming period. Non-debatable. Humans are most likely having some input on that process. But NOBODY knows the extent, no matter how much they claim to. NOBODY knows the end result or the timing of the end result, no matter how much they claim to.
I just wonder how many failed doomsday predictions have to pass before people begin to see that they are being duped around a sensational issue by other people who only stand to gain more wealth and power because of it. Virtually none of these individuals live like they claim we all should have to live.
We absolutely should explore renewable options and take care of our environment. But radically upending society, based on another guaranteed to fail doomsday prediction is an absurd approach. And we should have better sense that to give these clowns any credibility.
