The only thing people debate is if man influences it and if government regulation is the way to solve it.


oh no, many high profile republicans have denied climate change

Rick Scott banned scientists working in state agencies from using the term "climate change"

our president called it a fucking chinese hoax, and hundreds of people believe the crap he says

accepting manmade climate change is the first and biggest problem

Okay I'll admit there are certain, quite frankly idiots, who can look at basic facts and data and deny it but most people who are against the idea of it aren't actually deniers as much as just skeptics. Believing that it's naturally occurring and the Earth naturally has changed temperature up and down over the years, that it's not being contributed to by man, that government regulation won't solve it even if it is man made or that it's unavoidable, etc.

Again though I don't agree with any of that, I think it's 100% both natural and being amplified notably by mankind and that we need to do what we can to change it and I think the facts and 99% of the world experts opinions speak for themselves, however those are just the arguments I most commonly see from so called deniers most don't straight up denying it, just man's impact or ability to control it. Which is still stupid and uninformed imho, but definitely more respectable than the people who just straight up deny it entirely even naturally occurring because it factually is.

And there's also the argument to be made about how I will admit environmentalists kinda hurt their cause by blowing it out if proportion as a more immediate and apocalyptic problem than it actually was, like watching that Al Gore documentary in 2017 is kinda laughable because while his intentions were good most of those predictions were greatly exaggerated or simply wrong based on what we know now. I think that led to some people reinforcing their opinion that it's a hoax or not a big deal, etc.
