I work/ am qualified climate disaster management and have seen the politicization of climate change be one of the absolute destructive moves ever made for political goal.
This I 100% blame on Al Gore... Before his failed election bid, the republicans took climate issues more seriously, since Gore turned climate change into a partisan issue it's just gone from extreme overreach as a solution, to borderline neglect on the other side.
Now it is controversial to say climate change is real in certain circumstances because no side is putting forward sensible moderate action plans... It's always "we must ban cows and airplanes" or "fuck off, China is worse"
Mitigating the effects of climate change is already (there are already observed change in weather event severity and likelihood) a serious and expensive issue, which needs realistic compromises and potentially massive engineering solutions for at risk areas... But the current face is a hysterical Swedish child
Anyway fuck Al Gore... Hes probably made serious problems for the future with his failed election bid
I'll get this off my chest... Popular or not.
