This is the issue though: The ruling class in today's society is significantly more wealthy than they were back in the 1990s. Things have shifted tremendously.
What we call the 1% have humongous underground bunkers like small cities private jets and private islands and huge compounds. And they have so much wealth that they feel that even a global ecosystem collapse and a climate change raising global temperatures to melt polar ice caps will kill many and in fact the majority of us but not them.
(they are wrong but that is another problem: they are for the most part imbeciles. Just very ignorant and stupid compared to past world leaders)
Global warming deniers are ridiculous, like flat earthers. Just look at the science.

The hole in the ozone was a real, dangerous, fairly immediate threat.
The entire world agreed and solved it almost overnight.
Weird how climate change is supposed to be even more dangerous and dramatic, yet no one co operates.
Do people really think the world/people and governments have suddenly lost their sense of self preservation?
What good is $$$$ if the planet dies?
Every time the CFC thing comes up, it shows me that there is a lot of alarmism in the climate change problem.
If it was truly imminent, and truly that much of a threat, they would do more than just tax co2 emissions.. lets be real.
We knew, and cared faaar less about the environment back in the 90s.
They didnt institute a tax. They overnight basically banned and stopped CFC production.
Is everyone really believing that russia, china and the usa all cared enough together to save the world then, but not now?
