You won't answer the question, then....
it was: Do you not care about the health of this planet?
I guess not..........
*************
Disclaimer: what follows is sarcasm.
Okay, you win.
There was no moon landing.
The weather is not being erratic.
It doesn't matter if we cause earthquakes, level jungles and forests, burn coal, and continue to emit toxins into the air.
No worries if the oceans are being choked by plastics, and honey-bees are dying.....
Because - money.
end sarcasm
But now really - right? Money is more important?
Just answer the questions..... (I notice you're not answering the questions)
or not, but meanwhile, here is how I picture you:

The fact that he is not going along with the scam like all the other candidates. even if you believe that it is not yet clear in terms of research, then leaders like Obama should not being jumping on the band wagon like its 100% proven.
But remember that gravity, evolution, the moon landings, relativity, quantum physics, astronomy...none of that is 100% proven either. I suppose you won't jump on the evolution, moon landings were real and Gravity is a thing bandwagon too?

So, then ----- you don't care about the health of the planet.
Right?
GO HUG A TREE
Scientists Discover a Good Climate Surprise
Trees are emitting a lot less carbon dioxide as a result of warmer surface temperatures than previously believed, according to new research published in the journal Nature. Though they absorb carbon during photosynthesis, trees also release some carbon back out into the atmosphere in a process called respiration. Climate change was supposed to make that respiration process a much bigger problem, but this new study brings us positive climate news, for once. The New York Times reports:
Until now, most scientists have thought that a warming planet would cause plants to release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which in turn would cause more warming.
But in a study published Wednesday in Nature, scientists showed that plants were able to adapt their respiration to increases in temperature over long periods of time, releasing only 5 percent more carbon dioxide than they did under normal conditions.
Based on measurements of short-term temperature responses in this study and others, the scientists expected that the plants would increase their respiration by nearly five times that much.

The first problem here is that climate change is a "belief" which means it is more akin to religion than science.
No, it isn't...
That is the problem, people don't even understand it enough. That 97% number that gets tossed around may not be accurate. But it is a majority, and world wide.
And there are good theories and not
We used to think the earth was flat and had theories for such. We didnt know what the hell we were doing.
We had a pretty damned good theory for gravity before it was generally proven. So good it led most people studying it to find out more about it and not waste time on other theories as a cash cow.

I don't jump on those things either, moon landing i seriously doubt and evolution is up in the air for me too

I don't need a video to explain to me something I am already aware of. By all means tell me the gist of it, but I'll save my time and not hear the same thing over and over again.
Sea level has been falling on the Atlantic seaboard for the past six years.

Oceans are rising, we're all drowning.
The science is settled.
Obey.
