> Your inference that rich people using private planes means climate change is overblown is a non-sequitur.
Not "rich people," people who are going to climate conferences whose primary purpose is to figure out how to lower carbon emissions and meet C02 goals. It's a perfectly logical conclusion.
> Secondly, you are creating a strawman argument. Show me the scientist who is saying what we need to do is to panic?
Scientists do not (precisely how I know the fervor is a lie), but there's plenty of "crisis" and "red alert" language which lead to people panicking (see: idiots blocking traffic or gluing their hands to art) [1].
> Third, you make claims about people's motivations being tied to lacking spiritual grounding.
Yes.
