>We are undergoing a societal change.

No doubt about that. One can see it from the anger and frustration of the children and the youth. If they are not moaning about one thing it's another.

But what is the point of the climate change activism when the thrust of the activism is totally wrong?

I refer to the idea that CO2 and greenhouse gases are the cause of the climate change which is total baloney. How can a gas, which is in fact essential to all plant life, warm the earth in an atmospheric concentration of 40 parts per million (1 part in 25,000)? Just think of that - it's 1mm vs 25 metres. Put in another way it's the thickness of a piece of cardboard against the height of an 8 story building.

So they'll close down coal-fired power-stations, run cars on batteries, generate electricity by solar or wind means, stop flying planes - and then - when the climate doesn't change, what do they do?

Meanwhile the cost of electricity generation and transport has gone through the roof.

Just like Germany, which installed all the "good" stuff and then its economy faltered, the world economy will be in the crapper.

So then they'll be able to complain about something else - no doubt capitalism and the wealthy 1%.

Perhaps that's what the climate change activism is all about in the first place - merely a means to a political end. To ultimately incite a revolution.
