This is perhaps better as a resource to feel better after dealing with someone's Gish gallop at a dinner party or whatever. It probably won't help you convince a movement skeptic. Fighting skeptics is playing in their court. If you honestly believe we are heading to crisis, we need to work on actions and lobbying to implement them. The more time you spend debating the less you have to act. Finally, skeptics don't lose when they're proven wrong. We all do, but it becomes the new normal, and the skeptic gets to continue to believe whatever they want and feel superior. Keep moving forward, don't try to hold terrain.
