...and that being the coup de grace for a global extinction is what scares me.

We are already seeing it. We are seeing it happen right now, and there are idiots on both Ken's board and Mondo's who seem to think that this is all a big hoax by climate scientists.

I want to be optimistic. I want to believe that we will panic, and go into overdrive, and we'll manage to pull ourselves back from the brink. But then I run into the deniers, who are still going strong, and I realize that we aren't just facing off against the climate. We're facing off against people who have invested their ego in winning a political argument and who refuse to admit that they were wrong.

I don't even care about them being wrong. As far as I'm concerned, they're flat-earthers. I don't take particular pride or joy in besting a flat-earther in a debate. It's not even about that anymore. We have to dig in, right now, and do everything we can to mitigate climate change. Otherwise, 2100 - a year my kids may live to see - will be hell on earth.

My response:

Asshole, the "deniers" are not contributing any more to climate change and ocean acidification than you are with your big fat foghorn mouth.

"I don't even care about them being wrong."

Sure you do. You are beating the crap out of everyone with your constant badgering about global warming and other libnutz soundbytes.
