Climate change activists have been crying wolf for decades now.
Even if the wolf comes, nobody will take them seriously.

- klyrs 3y agoOil companies did their own research and came to the same conclusion about climate change. But then they decided to lobby against effective mitigation. You're just regurgitating their propaganda.
- digging 3y agoThe wolf is here and has been here. It's eating more and more sheep every year. But the sheep at the other end of the pasture don't know anyone who's been eaten, so they think the whole idea of the wolf was a scam to steal their grass.
- bheadmaster 3y agoThe wolf is not here - it's always only a decade or two away.
- digging 3y agoIt's up to you if you want to, in your head, define climate change as something that's always a little bit worse than what exists today, but that's not what anyone else means. Let me be clear: climate change is driving massive disasters around the globe and has been for years. We're in it. It will get worse, but we're in it.
