🦿 Lucian Marin All climate change policies had produced growth in all industries across the planet in recent years. Why are climate change deniers believe otherwise? Why wouldn't you want a healthy economy and a healthy environment at the same time?
Mark Dain I've never heard that growth claim, could you link to some articles/papers? Perhaps some people simply haven't heard the right argument? For me, I think a lot of deniers can be explained as a reaction to aggressive tree huggers. I got into a fierce argument with a friend who told me he's "disgusted" to hear I want to drive a pickup and that my answer to climate concerns was to carbon offset. It pissed me off so much I decided to scrap my plans to carbon offset and to get the car I -really- want to get, and not the high MPG model. Yes, CC is real but if you can't even work with people on keeping your footprint low, what can you do?

This is exactly the problem in this debate: lots of noise articles that fill up Google and do not actually give any way to support factual statements.
