Yeah, I completely know what you're talking about in terms of water versus carbon dioxide.
I work on climate solutions every day. My specific focus is on carbon and mining carbon from the air. However, loss of groundwater and water depletion is such a powerful short term challenge, it can take the spotlight away from carbon. Without water, a society grinds to a halt in hours and days.
I'm interested in how others are thinking about that and keeping these balanced.
EDIT: My suggestion for your statement above is: "which will have an impact decades down the line". It's the "may or may not" that brings out the pitchforks.
Also, the "belief" thing on anthro-change is puzzling. Imagine reading notes on a discussion with Newton where someone to profess their "belief in gravity". Do we "believe in gravity" today? Wish we had a better word/term for this.
