A thought just occurred to me: I suspect that many of the people who downplay the importance of fighting climate change are not impacted by hot weather.
If someone lives in a luxury condo and works in an office tower with underground parking, he or she can avoid the weather entirely, going from an air-conditioned home to an air-conditioned parking garage to an air-conditioned car to another air-conditioned garage to an air-conditioned workplace.
This reminds me of a way to divide the world into three groups, which I may already have mentioned in this space:
- Those who can hire people to clean up their messes for them
- Those who have to clean up their own messes (I’m in this group)
- Those who have to clean up other people’s messes for a living
