1. Argumentation is wrong.
We cannot argue the finer points of climate change. Must trust the experts. (analogy of Manhattan project in WW2)
2. The most prestigious scientific organizations are in agreement. It is real, a major concern & there is a timeline (& likely a tipping point)
3. Media is a big reason why it is still treated as a 'controversy'
4. Our concern must be the application of risk management. We must seek to mitigate the risk of the potential damage.
(analogy of Manhattan project in WW2 and the purchasing of insurance)
5. The language is wrong.
Global warming is incorrect. Global climate change also.
Concern and therefore name is Global Climate Destabilization.
