Well, duh, who is doing more damage than that idiot? Climate change is a long term threat, Trump is immediate.
Not that you understand, of course.

Unfortunately, no, not most Americans. If that was the case, there would be way fewer democrats. But they’re still there and voting democrat.

The big problem is that time marches on. And after a while, more and more people start to realize that the claims what would happen if "things do not change" never happen.
Back in the 1990s when the "Global Warming" hype first started, it was easy to get people on board because it was getting warmer. After all, the US had just gone through a mini-mini-ice age that for much of the 70s was causing record snowfalls. And the entire planet was still recovering them the actual "Mini-Ice Age".
And they kept doing the norm, and making predictions in 10-20 year jumps in time. "If you do not do this, by 2010 things will be a nightmare". Or "If things continue as they are, by 2016 the Arctic will be ice free".
And, well the problem is that we are now significantly past the things the doomers predicted. And none of them have happened. In short, it has become the "Chicken Little Syndrome". If you predict horrible and terrible things to happen over and over and none of them ever happen, then obviously the credibility has to be questioned.
And we are indeed now at the point where we have seen a decade worth of such predictions all completely fail.
Last year we had 12 years left. And six years ago we had 12 years left. And in 12 years we will only have 12 years left.
And it is even more funny for people like me, because I remember most of the same doomers five decades ago screaming the exact opposite. That humans were causing a "new ice age". Hell, if you want a real laugh look up the "predictions" from the first Earth Day in 1970.

We hear from folks almost every year about when an event will occur that will destroy mankind. Asteroids are done the most.The big problem is that time marches on. And after a while, more and more people start to realize that the claims what would happen if "things do not change" never happen.

Most people don’t remember ‘The Pump’. It was the primed hair spray dispenser designed to replace aerosol cans because aerosol cans were destroying ozone and would cause the earth to freeze over.The big problem is that time marches on.

That was before fossil fuels would cause the earth to melt.

Is your friend as stupid as you are? The science that provide absolute evidence that GHG's heat the atmosphere was demonstrated in 1858 by John Tyndall in England. Nobody has falsified that since then. Flapyapping trying to change the subject is evidence of a very weak mind.Is that the same science that says Stephen can become a woman if he puts on a dress and calls himself Stephanie?
Is that the same science that says viruses only travel one way down the grocery aisle and can't get you if you stand on painted squares six feet apart from each other?

Man, you are ******* dumb. We have increased the CO2 in the atmosphere from 280 ppm to 424 ppm. We have increased the CH4 from about 650 ppb to over 1900 ppb. In the past, at the present levels, there were no polar ice caps. By natural climate change, the Milankovitch Cycles, we should be descending, slowly, into the next ice age.
I don't know where you got your chart, but here is a source from real scientists;

Extreme global warming will not destroy the planet, but it will certainly negatively affect civilization.

Longer growing seasons, higher crop yields and fewer cold-related deaths.
Sounds super negative.

So if we exposed you to the UV that hits the Moon, you would be fine with that, right...
The Ozone issue was real. Global Warming is a fraud. If you cannot distinguish between the two, STFU....

Modern democrat invented catstrophesI'm confused. I thought we only had 12 years left. Are we no longer headed towards a fiery destruction?

Global Warming is a theory that CO2 in the atmosphere is the dominant factor in Earth climate change.
That theory never had any truth to it at all, and those behind it knew that, they just knew they had a "team" to push it that included way too many traitors in high places.
Earth climate does change. Jurassic was warmer, wetter, and had much higher surface air pressure, what happens when Earth has little to no land near the poles and hence little to no ice. There is more atmospheric gas trapped in Antarctic ice than there is in the atmosphere now. Melt that ice and Earth becomes a "mini gas giant."

Ole!!!! Total dodge from answering the question. Perhaps people don't believe in climate change as the left puts out there is because there's a whole bunch of predictions that were supposed to have happened already that's not close to happening based on climate change. Or maybe, it's because people see the people who cries for climate change live in big houses that uses a lot of energy, don't have solar panels, and fly to places on private jets. Why does the UN need to go around the world to hold conferences on climate change? Can't they just use Zoom or Microsoft Teams?

Hell, hand sprayers were almost unheard of in that era.
Those pump bottles were only invented in the 1960s, and were mostly a curiosity because they were not needed. We had aerosol cans that did it automatically. Back in that era, pretty much everything came in a can. It was the CFC ban in 1979 that suddenly forced the industry to change to other things. That is when "spray on deodorant" largely vanished, and then roll-on and sticks rose to dominance. The same with hair spray, most non-caustic cleaning products also. Early on only the caustic cleaning products and poisons were what you would find after 1979.
It was not the aerosol cans themselves, but the chlorofluorocarbons that were used as the propellent. The industry was only given a year to replace it with something else, and most companies elected to simply make the switch to pump bottles. Most of those that remained were given an extension so they could research and implement a replacement for the CFC. Such as oven cleaners, insecticides, and products that simply would not work in a spray bottle (especially those so caustic they broke down plastic or degraded when exposed to air).
For example, try to imagine canned whip cream in a spray bottle. Other food items also got extensions as obviously spray bottles would not work for most of them because of contamination.
They eventually did find propellent that could replace CFCs, but by that time most companies had spent so much on the hand sprayers they just kept using them.
The late 70s was an interesting period. We could also go into the store and see 64 ounce glass soda bottles next to 2 liter plastic soda bottles.
But yes, along with the "New Ice Age", the "Ozone Hole" was a huge doomer thing in that era.

Whenever somebody spins to some form of Derangement Syndrome like BDS or TDS and is unable to address the topic itself, I know they are a mindless drone and have nothing of importance to add to a topic. In short an attempt to deflect away from inconvenient truths and attack the other poster.
And just like the Climate Fearmongers, I have been hearing people like that blather on now for decades. That is the thing when you are an actual adult, you remember that they have been doing things like that for decades now.
