          You’re right! We must convert at least 25% of ICE cars on the road today to electric within 10 years! No matter what!

              You’re right. We need to divert all the oil resources to carbon capture plants immediately!

              No, I’ll get the future all the people who think this is too much deserve, but with laughing at them as we all die.
