If they are wrong we are wasting resources on green projects that bring
no benefits.

If they are right they need to get the entire world to cooperate to fix
it. They wont be able to do this. So it will happen and we are wasting

We need to spend the resources on stuff that will be of benefit
whichever way it goes.

isn't following basic logic. A sure sign something smells in the
garden ...
