| SamuelRSmith said: The issue with these points is that it assumes that fighting global warming is costless. You present it as if fighting climate change and being wrong will be without cost. The truth is that in order to switch to green energy/manufacturing, billions will suffer reduced standards of living, and millions will die. That is the reality of these proposals. |
I didn't assume so. The switch doesn't have to be instantaneous, and it'll the rich will probably take the hardest hits instead of the poor that seem most vulnerable to the threats of climate change. Add in the risks climate change could pose like others did, and I find fighting climate change the lesser evil - especially in the long run.
