A lot of folks seem to believe it’s too late to address #climate change or that doing so will hurt the economy.
They’ve been duped by individuals & corporations with influence.
In reality, climate action will benefit our health, safety, security & economy.
Be suspicious of those who say otherwise.

I go well past being suspicious of them. I have met way too many of them before.
The bizarre thing is that unless they are rabid deniers of the climate science, since it is well known and established that failing to reduce GHG emissions is much more expensive than reducing them.
That has been known reliably and robustly for ages.
So if they were really concerned about the economy and living in the real world, not some fantasy world. Then they'd want to reduce emissions,
even at substantial cost, (and its not)
but even if it was then the reduction in damage costs from the emissions avoided far outweighs the cost and is thus better for the economy.
Anyone who legitimately wants to claim otherwise rather than just meme about it has to go back and refute all those multiple independent lines of evidence.
and that's just nah. Not even the old timer sciency deniers do that, or ever did. They always did, and always have relied on selective interpretation of carefully curated data and rhetoric.
