Also, climate change doesn't have to hit your area specifically to be harmful. Crop failures will lead to wars and displaced people. Water shortages in India lead to angry people that want to fight over Kashmir, increased migration from climate affected areas to richer areas cause ethnic tension (from North Africa to Europe, from South America to the US). As an aside, clearly the policies of nationalists are abhorrent, but they don't occur in a vacuum, and, in the US at least, the left hasn't provided a clear path to a solution to this issue.

Here's the CIA being worried about such things (https://insideclimatenews.org/news/30012019/worldwide-threat...).

Yes, this is very doom and gloom. The facts are gloomy and connecting the dots on our possible futures spells out, in all likelihood, doom. How can you not see this?

I’d rather be on the side of the border that’s angry about the immigrants than the side of the border the immigrants are fleeing from.

Perhaps in the days of tomorrow, we will once again be in the mercy of Nature? Of course not, as long as we retain our technologies. Ergo, even if you (and I agree) don't think climate change will doom humanity as a whole, I'd still be sympathetic to rational campaigns reducing it's effects.

Um, what? On what are you basing this likelihood on? These are scientists that study this for a living. This sounds like complete fabrication.

All it takes is one asteroid to invalidate all the predictions. Or one war. Or one biological contagion. Or one technological innovation.

Indeed. We'll just get to deal with a rehash of the anti-immigrant rhetoric we're seeing now thanks to a refugee crisis our policies and consumption rates created.
