      It’s not that there don’t care as much as they don’t believe it will affect them personally. They believe they their wealth will protect them.

        I think plenty of them also think it’s far enough in the future that it won’t affect them (spoiler alert: it’s not)

      They don’t care about it getting worse. because global warming is their answer to every goal they have.

      It’s the classic “we don’t care if the valley floods, we live on the hill” mentality. They think that if/when the world devolves into chaos that they’ll be safe because they’re well off.

      The problem with conspiracy theories is that they’re trying to assign a single point of blame to a complete systemic failure. The feeling is that if we can simply find out who is doing this and boil it down to one person or one group we can then simply attack that group and solve all our problems. That’s exactly the ox that fascism has yolked on its ride to power in every single generation.

      It was the government doing window guidance that caused their mess, how do you blame the people who made successful companies that gave Japan its first world living standard?
