The issue is that the earth is being brought out of balance within a few decades. This has rarely happened, and when it did happen (meteorites, volcanos etc) the consequences were bad. And yet we are arrogant enough to think we can pump billions of tons in the atmosphere without consequences.
Our ancestors did enough to balance out a natural decrease in temperature that should have happened. And that was without a global industrial system. So of course what we do will massively influence the system. Going “I don’t believe things will be bad” is basically the same as “I don’t believe in climate change”. Both are an excuse not to do anything.
