I hope the Climate Activists are proud of the effect their lies are having on the younger generation

If this survey is real the messages these young people are receiving are completely wrong.

We need to reduce our impact on our planet but CO2 is a complete red herring. The current ECS (temperature increase for a doubling of CO2 in the atmosphere) is centred around 3°C (IPCC AR6). The 2°C will destroy civilisation is simply made up.

    I think:

    1. they are scared
    2. they don't trust the authorities and corporations
    3. as infuriating as we may find it, they are not “just” being difficult; they are genuine and committed (I think the same thing is true of anti-vaxers).

     

    If we don't like their opinion, we can engage with them on an open transparent level which seeks true understanding, but if they (and we) come away with the same opinions, everyone has to respect that and let it go.

    Personally, I don't blame them given the destruction humans have wreaked on the planet and that multi-nationals and co-opted governments lie, cheat, steal and blat other folk left right and centre as suites them.  Profit at any cost.  It is unsustainable and abusive.
