    Climate change deathes currently are largely avoidable and it comes up as a relatively small source of death.

    I’d like to see you “avoid” a wet bulb event in a 3rd world country. These have started becoming an increasingly common occurrence in the last decade or so. Climate change also disproportionately affects poorer countries, the ones no one cares about. Entire archipelagos projected to disappear in decades. So fuck off with your “caring about climate change is for privileged people”.

    Nope. No one alive today will witness any kind of apocalypse generation killing event.

    Hysterics don’t make you right. That is in more than 100 years when anyone talking right now is long dead.

    You do realize that there’s people alive today that will live in 2100 right? And that they will be in their 80’s (those who can talk today), not 100+. Have you seen any graphs on what the temperatures and water levels will be at the current pace? Even optimistic scenarios are hellish.

    You are factually wrong, no matter how confidently you say it. I am not insulting your intelligence for your opinions like you seem to do in almost every comment, just informing that you do not understand climate change like you claim to “completely” do. I guess what you actually mean is that it will get bad after you are dead, so it doesn’t really matter.

      We’re clearly at a unproductive point in this conversation where you are slinging accusations and we clearly are at an impasse. I think your position ignores the valid perspective of others, you think it outweighs every other position even from people who try to do better just as you claim to.

      That seems to be it. I can’t convince you, and you certainly haven’t convinced me.
