Irrational fear? Climate change is an irrational fear in America? Just drives home how late we are to do anything about it.
If Americans, the richest most polluting people on earth can't be persuaded to release less CO2, good luck convincing a citizen of India or Indonesia to do the same.
And apparently a sizeable part of the population thinks that planting trees or buying a few Teslas will solve it.
- whatshisface 7y agoThe fear of climate change ruining life in America is irrational, because America is the richest country in the world and will probably be able to push most of the bad effects off on other people. Even if climate change destroys trillions of dollars the US will still have trillions left. Americans should be thinking in terms of spending a few billion now to save a few trillion later, not in terms of an existential crisis for the human race.
