Because "Climate Crisis" wasn't getting the kind of fear reaction they wanted. And if anybody is actually worried about the environment, they have to come to terms with this before thinking that more taxes or government programs will fix anything.
That's been my line of reasoning. If climate change was ACTUALLY going to doom humanity within 20 years, it would be our moral responsibility to nuke China.
If progressives/globalists/environmentalists are not on board with this than they don't actually believe in the cause.
Same thing with religious folk who say everyone but them is going to hell. If you ACTUALLY believed in eternal damnation, you would be morally responsible for committing your life to proselytizing.
Not only nuking China, but taking care of the homeless in the US and enforcing very strict immigration control. While nowhere near the contributor to pollution as China, the homeless and illegal aliens pollute our waterways, leave trash everywhere, and defecate wherever they please. Plastic straws and plastic bags are banned, yet they have no qualms about the piles of trash and feces being left on the streets and in the less developed parts of the US.

I've had moderate success with the following rhetoric:
"Are you willing to go to war with China in order to save the environment?"
Turns out no one has the balls to deal with the problem after all.
