“Where thinking people differ is not that the climate might or might not be getting warmer, it is the notion that man caused all of it, that it is going to be catastrophic, and that we can actually do something about it, which is nonsense.”
Totally agree.
Yes. Most sensible scientists or policy people who look at it say “Spending tens of trillions of dollars, destroying economies, subjecting people to privation and even starvation, all for a 1.5 degree Celsius reduction (and I simply do not believe even that) is abject stupidity because we CANNOT control it any more than we can control what the sun does.
We should simply adapt and mitigate as the climate cools or warms, as we, as humans, always have.
