Educate yourself. This is a problem that needs major policy change to reverse action. It's not as simple as not using single use products. The average person can do things to help as much as they can, but it's not enough without major structural changes. Saying "fine by me" and then downplaying the issue as just "weather patterns" is just pure ignorance

Are said scientists all living their lives as if it's a genuine threat (eating vegan, no driving or flying, no heat or electricty from fossil fuels, no single use products...)? Because if you have personally done the experiments that prove to you that it's true, the only logical response is to want to stop contributing to the problem in any way. As soon as I know their discovery has made all scientists who have made said discovery change their lifestyle to limit emissions as much as possible, I will believe they believe it's an urgent problem and thus believe it's an urgent problem myself.
