How should we got about people saying: "It's too late. It's now an open bar and I won't shoot myself in the foot by restricting my lifestyle or paying more than others for the same goods and services to soften the inevitable coming disaster. If this is the last ride and I have a seat I might as well enjoy it."

Eg: "Why buy a green car if it's going to cost me way more than a good old diesel and the apocalypse is coming the same anyway ?"

A used Prius isn't that expensive. Or keep the diesel and consolidate/limit trips. I would argue if we all drove less people would have a better lifestyle due to less traffic, better health, less wasted time, etc. regardless of climate change.

Are those people wrong?

It's sure looking like we might as well get our boozing in before last call.
