Climate scientists, in an effort to stave off despair, aren’t telling the truth about our warming planet. In reality, we're incredibly close to the point of no return: when rising seas drown island nations and almost all coral reefs die. I’m here to tell climate scientists — and my fellow climate journalists — to knock it off, writes Barbara Moran.

I disagree with this take. The effects of climate change are not binary.
There is no doubt that we are feeling the effects of man-influenced climate change. However, that does not mean that we should just give up. There is a difference between +1.5c and +2.0c. It is a fight worth fighting for.
The reason why you don’t pay attention to the topic of climate change is because you do not give 2 shits and/or are not willing to change your ways and make any sacrifice.
I am sorry but it seems to me that you are misinformed.
The issue is not about the survivability of the planet or of humanity…
Why do you assume they aren’t doing their best to prevent climate change, just because the don’t consume every thinkpiece that goes around?

I think you underestimate how popular taking action to stop climate change is. Even in places like Texas, it has super-majority support. The idea that it is a controversial issue is just made up to feed into climate apathy.
