Climate scientist Bill McGuire writes on his conundrum: what’s happening to our planet scares the hell out of him—but if he shouts the unvarnished truth from the rooftops, will that inspire you to act or to give up?

After COVID are we still doing the "I am an expert trust me" thing?
After COVID are we still doing the "I'll pretend this threat does not exist" thing?
So you dont think people or groups wont use a problem for their gain?
only if you have a sane reason to believe so
that was one of the arguments to dismiss covid back then and it was just vague 'chinese conspiracy' vibes
Sure, lets the vaccine. They were telling us long after we knew the vaccine wasnt as affective as they said that it was completely effective and that if you took one you were done. They even told us to give it to children. But if you looked skin deep you could see the vaccine wasnt working like they said, and that kids were 100% not at risk. How many times do you remember them telling us to get healthy to prevent harm from covid? I dont remember a single time, but they kept saying to take the vaccine, so I have to believe that it was about lobbiests and big phrama profit. If I am remembering correctly, almost all of the billions of revenue that Moderna had was directly from vaccine sales.
the vaccine was just as effective as they said, they even correctly predicted the side effects and their chances.
this is just unhinged man.
They said the vaccine would only be needed to take a single time and you were good and if you took the vaccine you were protected from spreading it. Those are both 100% false, and they side effects are still unknown, and much worse than they claim.
No one is infallible.
Sure, but when people with zero expertise are correct, and the experts (that we see on the news) are completely wrong, then its more than just being wrong.
