I think apocalyptic warning don't work well for humans.
Competition and inspiration work better.
We need to reframe the way we discuss this, because after 25 years its clear the current frame is not working.
After the replication crisis, I also think trust in science has decreased significantly. Its now nearly 3 years from the original crisis, and the crisis has spread from social sciences to biological sciences.
So I don't expect warnings from scientists to suddenly be more effective, but actually less effective from now until the next scientific reformation.
