How d'ye know that's the alternative?
Let's do a risk analysis:
Suppose all the scientists concerned about climate catastrophe are
wrong, then you'll be suffering a little inconvenience unnecessarily.
That's not the end of the world.

It's not a "little inconvenience" when you are literally unable to get
to a family funeral in time without a petrol or diesel car!
But unless you are of a certain religion, there is plenty of
warning about when the funeral will take place, allowing a bit
of forward route planning.
It is not just a "certain religion". Christians burials in Ireland as
mainly next day or the day after at latest.
