CMV: despite being scientifically true, much of the global warming “industry” is a scam

I work in film in La now but got my degree in environmental science. Much of my moms friends and a lot of conservative leaning friends of mine are in the “global warming is bs” camp. While I disagree with them, a Quick Look at the marketing strategies of companies for “climate change” ideology has completely been about getting extra money, for bullshit, validating what “non-believers” think. Things like ads in the early 2000s that said that society would be uninhabitable by 2020s/30s are ridiculous and always were. The timeline of earths climate doesn’t move in a humans lifetime, while certain species of animals in places like Australia and Africa have gone extinct because of warming, most seismic events regarding human beings aren’t projected to happen until late 2060s and that’s probably mass migration causing destabilisation across the world. Also the idea that you driving a pickup truck is what’s harming the planet, not the “climate conscious” corporation releasing sulfur hexafluoride while vilifying common people. This issue is now double pronged, as what’s even more infuriating about this issue is most “believers” don’t even know the science of what they’re talking about. Reason for this post being that someone told me the greenhouse effect is a bad thing, most people don’t even know what they’re talking about. I brought up infrared radiation and albedo and they looked at me Like I was talking about a weird fringe theory. The scamming has gotten so bad that even people that support the cause of wanting to stop rapid warming don’t know why they’re doing it, or what the process that leads to excess warming actually is. It’s a terrible thing because ultimately we’ll have a bunch of people who claim to be climate conscious that are doing harm with a mindset that they’ve helped the earth get better, and it’s because of disingenuous grifters who’ve taken science and distorted it for profit
