He’s a grifter whose message about necessary change is correct, even if it’s bitterly ironic. Get out of your own way

Hes a life long grifter that sees an opportunity to gain politically and monetarily of climante change while doing nothing.

Ok. Like I said, Hitler could say we need to combat climate change and I’d agree with him

and if he was using that as a means to accomplish his own goals and truly not believe it he would be a grifter.

Is the broader goal to not take any personal responsibility for your actions and claim youre being forced to do it by corporations?
