It amazes me that people don't understand that burning fossil fuels into our atmosphere isn't going to have some kind of negative effect. Then again, people to this day still inhale cigarette smoke directly in their lungs despite overwhelming proof that it causes cancer and other ailments.
The problem with global warming is that people don't know the difference between weather and climate. Also, the big concern is a selfish one because it's mostly about worrying about what it will do to humans.
The planet will get warm, the ice caps will melt, inlands will flood, species will die and the Earth will become a bit more inhospitable to the animal kingdom. The Earth itself however doesn't care and will eventually heal itself and life will begin a new.
Yeah but fossil fuels themselves will run out eventually. Electric cars are slowly gaining popularity.
Eventually they will have to be made mandatory at some point.
We'll be fine.
