I’ve never said climate change isn’t happening or real.

But, I reject that it is an emergency. I reject the race for net-zero. Of course we should reduce emissions but setting arbitrary deadlines forcing people to change to more expensive, less reliable products will just cause problems

People will change to greener alternatives by themselves when they are competitively priced, reliable, work just as well and the infrastructure is there to support them.

Forcing people to change and/or scaring them into changing is not the right way to change peoples habits.
