Really?

I get the sense we (as in all of us collectively) are not taking it seriously enough. I wonder where this "fearmongering" is happening. A lot of stuff that is happening (the Western US drought that seems to be the worst in a millenium plus the consequent heavy use of groundwater, triple dip la nina, etc.) seem like they should worry us more than they actually are.

What you describing is your personal perception, based (like most of us) on what is circulating in media.

Objectively, “climate change” was happening on this planet allegedly since it was born 4.6 billion years ago. It’s a natural course of things.

To understand the scope of fear mongering you can look what “priests” were saying 10 years ago and how much of their predictions came out as true. It’s quite interesting. They use shortness of human memory.

By this logic, plenty of species have died out in the 4.6 billion years of earth and so we should do nothing about the demographic crisis in many countries. After all it’s all just life and life will go on.

And that’s true. What can you do to avoid “demographic crisis”? Thinking you (or we as a society) can change course of things is very flattering, however flowed it is.

You can try to change global things like earth orbit or natural course of time with same result.

To understand how stupid “climate change” ideas are, you can simply look if it’s preachers are doing anything following their preachings. They fly private jets and then tell regular people about “offsetting carbon footprint”.

It’s all about money and power, nothing else. Climate change is of no interest to them.

Whether or not a person is a hypocrite has nothing to do with the validity of their argument.

Good point, however if someone doesn't follow their preachings it severely diminishes value of things preached.

No, it doesn’t.

The truth is the truth - regardless of who tells it to you.
