Yes indeed, humanity has little influence on climate, but it is a profitable industry, therefore people willfully turn a blind eye, or are even misinformed and therefore ignorant. It is naive to assume politically sensitive topics like climate change can be openly discussed here, as a downvote will result.

Some moaners believe the "climate crisis" is another scheme by the elite to get "us" to pay more, e.g. in the form of CO2 compensation, fuel tax while EVs get subsidies, "forcing" "us" to buy EVs that are another platform to control and spy on "us".

They are insufferable, to be honest.
