...to contemplate, they are so delusional.

I've personally been hearing this kind of irresponsible crap my whole dann adult life and I'm not young.

The climate is a disaster NOW, and the reason is that half a century of similar delusional rhetoric and chanting was just that, delusional rhetoric and chanting.

In 2050 there will be a generation of people living under far more dire straits than we are already seeing in 2018 and 2018 ain't pretty.

They will justifiably hate us for what we have done in claiming that they should have been able to do what we could not do with far more resources than we will leave for them.
