I'll start by saying that I believe that we need societal changes to help mitigate climate change. BUT, 1) it is personal, 2) it is an attack and 3) it is a limitation on personal freedoms. If we wish to make actual changes to save the planet rather than just preach, we need to recognize these truths. Telling people that their feelings are wrong just makes them dig in their heels all the more. IMO, a better approach is to recognize these sort of objections and think creatively about how to deal with them or mitigate the impact. Remember, the objective isn't to win arguments, it's to heal the Earth.
