Because if you want to say climate change is a serious danger, you have to be willing to do what it takes to reverse it.
I will believe in climate change when they start talking about nuking China and India to keep them from destroying the planet. Not willing to sacrifice billions now to save trillions over the next 10,000 years? Then you don't really believe climate change poses an existential threat.
I believe in climate change and none of that is in line with any data that exists.
Yes, Climate Change is an existential threat to states, not to humanity, let alone the actual planet itself. There is also no evidence that Climate Change is a threat to either humanity or the planet itself. Normally what happens when a civilization level threat arises, it is far more subtle than a war. Most people will quietly move out of less productive or economic lands to better ones, meaning that the political order is destabilized and empires fall.
never seen this take before, pretty based
Honestly, Jared Diamond (the guy who wrote Guns, Germs, and Steel) basically wrote another book called "Collapse" where he looks how several massive powers collapsed, several of them due to climatological chances, causing logistical chaos that made many early empires unable to feed the city-states that ruled their empire.
One exception to this is actually Easter Island because factionalism actually depleted the island's supply of wood, because the large trees were being cut down to support the creation of those giant stone heads and move them into positions in an intra-island culture war. The island was so deforested (and the inhabitants didn't have any forest management), that boats could no longer be built, meaning that the island couldn't engage in trade, and had accidentally isolated itself. This basically caused a massive demographic collapse and turned a late stone-age tribe into an near early stone-age people that wouldn't encounter other humans for hundreds of years until Europeans encountered them.
