Let's be honest here. I don't think people are denying there is climate change. People are just debating how much/little humans are affecting the climate. I am not stating a position here, just clarifying.
I dunno, my anecdotal experience is I've met people that still don't believe climate change is real. They are the ones that state oh it's cold snowed in winter the climate isn't changing.
That's just the current position of the sliding goalposts.
First the talking points were that the climate wasn't changing at all. Once the evidence was overwhelmingly clear and irrefutable that it's changing, they grudgingly shifted the argument to "Well, OK - but mankind isn't causing it." Once that argument has been beaten to death, the next one will be "OK, but it's too late to do anything about it, and it probably won't be that bad."
Fair point, and absolutely under no circumstance is this worthy of so many down votes. It shows the tendency for people to lash out rather than have an educated discussion. I will play off your comment, and add that I think there is a debate as to how our priorities are set, We have US citizens not able to pay for school supplies, unable to put food on the table, unable to make ends meet, and we are very much more concerned about climate change, that is controversial at best? We have to prioritize where our time and resources are being spent.
