That sounds a lot like our bewilderment over inaction on climate change, several decades ago. Here was a civilization-ending, even species-threatening catastrophe unfolding before us and it was nigh-on impossible to invigorate a meaningful response from Governments and passion from the public.

My gut reaction is that most folks are brushing it off as a non-event because it doesn't directly concern them, and they've become numb to outlandish, world-changing news.

That's because climate change is still not proven after 30 years every model every prediction is almost ultimately turned up to be wrong or reversed yes the Earth is changing natural History shows us that it does that very rapidly whether or not we caused it or not is still the issue. I look at it this way smog is climate change it changes an entire city climate it also kills people with bad lungs but you're not going to get people to stop making it.
