Hot take: carbon emissions are causing climate change AND the people who constantly publicly complain that "we need to reduce carbon emissions to stop climate change" are just blatant fucking liars, thieves and hypocrites who want more power and influence for themselves. The concepts aren't mutually exclusive.

Look at the UN climate change framework, which mandates that the US and EU send hundreds of billions of dollars to China as charity in spite of China being the world's largest economy. They will then use this money to protect the environment and reduce carbon emissions by building new generation coal power plants that emit 10% less carbon than the old coal power plants did. Please, somebody tune out all of the denialists and big oil shills and address THAT elephant in the room.
