I Think the reason older folks resist climate change is 3-fold:
- It’s scary
- It requires a substantial change in lifestyle
- It has become attached to politics, (particularly liberal, progressive politics) which makes it a representation of the “other”.
That aside, there is something to be said about seeing the predictions of your youth fizzle out. On the other hand, we have a tendency to romanticize the party and reframe ourselves relative to it. We remember things differently than they were.
