Let’s look at a larger timeline. Now how does this fit the equation. We are due to warm significantly from where we are regardless of what we do.

I don't think climate change is a hoax, but i think it is very exaggerated. Removing forests and having billions of people / machines producing pollutants has to have some negative effect on the planet. The issue is climate activists resort to extremes and make wild claims instead of just being practical. I think humans should respect the planet more in general. It has to be a worldwide effort and not have some of the worst polluting countries have little to no regulations. Who wants to goto beaches with garbage floating around and nasty water.

Problem is that it doesn’t matter what WE do, China and India will never pollute less. China is financing a lot of the Greenie groups so they hurt OUR industries but not China’s. If the Greenies told China and India to clean up their act, if the Greenies are lucky they’ll smile and nod and tell them to **** off, if they’re not lucky they’ll get shot or run over with tanks.

Funny story but the whole thing is too long for this space.
20+ years ago my late father was on the board of an MRI manufacturer. They were working on a deal to sell some MRI machines to China. Dad was your typical white American suit and tie businessman, Type A workaholic, full throttle all the time. Temu Donald Trump.
I was just out of grad school where I had a class in international business and learned that not all cultures are the same or with the same priorities and values.
Tried to tell him that selling in China doesn’t work like selling here.
It didn’t go well for them in China.
