  Why does it seem that the people that believe in climate change are the lesser of the population when it’s right in front of everyone’s face? It’s like a play by play of things we were told in school. It’s like a crash in slow motion that you can’t stop.

    Because the ones in power make a lot of money from the way things work, so they’re constantly convincing most of the people that there’s nothing wrong with the way things are going.

      Rich people LOVE disasters like floods and war and all that shit.

      Destruction drives production.

      All those destroyed things need to be built/bought again. Insurance premiums can go up. Lucrative government contracts to “fix” the problem.

      Look at all the millions spent on flood defences that didn’t work or were overwhelmed. Ah shit, guess you will just have to buy some more eh?
