I think the entire country has got enough on their plate to worry about without entertaining the speculations of an opinion article written about what "could" happen in a decade's time.

Their not wrong, though. A lot has to change in this country to make meaningful action on climate change something that can actually happen.

It's kinda like focusing on a broken window instead of putting out the fire the Molotov cocktail that broke the window started.

Yeah, the broken window absolutely needs to be addressed, but the house needs to not be on fire first.

I fear you're attributing too much intelligence to the respondent. Anyone that thinks my comment even remotely denies mmcc lacks the intellect to be swayed by a thoughtfully composed response.
