They say that even if we stop polluting the air the climate will do what it is going to do when it does it. However, what if we just stop polluting the air and see what happens? It might lead to less air pollution! That in itself would be a good thing. It might stop Climate Change. That is important to young people.Baby Boomers don't really have to worry because we can simply turn up the air conditioner if Global Warming causes hot days in the summer. We can simply move to the Coast of Oregon if Hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires make the rest of the country unlivable.
And if moving to the coast of Oregon isn't enough we can move to British Columbia or Alaska. Yes, people that live near the equator are in trouble but... really... so what? What if a Billion of them die?
Automobiles are the main cause of air pollution. What If we simply stopped burning gasoline... The only downside would be that the owners of oil companies would lose money. Saudi Arabia would stop selling oil and the King would have to take a job as a Camel Herder. The owners of ExxonMobile, BP and Shell are spending a fortune to spread propaganda. They are fighting for their lives and lifestyles. Without oil profits they would be poor people... However, They could simply switch ownership of shares of stock in oil companies to ownership of wind and solar corporations. They could just call up their stockbroker on the phone and put in the sell order and a buy order. This trade would have to be done without a lot of publicity... If the newspapers knew that Rex Tillerson was selling his stake in ExxonMobile that would trigger panic selling and a lower sale price.
I believe that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the rich.
