Seriously. People have no idea how most of the world is. It's not just maybe paying an extra 5 bucks a month for heating

People have know how the world works they also know what will will happen if we don’t do act.

Fossil fuel companies have been playing delaying and denying tactics for years(since the 70s). They have lied , set up organisations to deny it’s happening, paid influencers and bought our politicians. We can’t leave it to companies whose best interest is served by maintaining the status quo. Continued sponsorship of their activities puts all our futures in danger.

The whole conversation about climate change is getting super emotional and cynical. Everyone want's to lecture, instead of educate, inspire or motivate. I really don't see how this is going to change anything.
No one disagrees that fossil fuel companies overstayed their welcome and should be on their way out. But the conversations we have about that should be realistic and rational.
