We should just go ahead and do our worst and damn the consequences?

No, not shitting in your own nest would be considered a good idea by even the average american.

However to act as if climate change is some sort of new disaster caused by humanity is to totally overlook the fact that climate change is going to happen regardless of whether we're here or not.

I personally feel that the whole thing has been overblown in order to justify extracting even more money from the average slob in the street.

Having said that I believe strongly that it it is in our own best interest to minimise our impact on the environment.

But we cannot avert climate change, it WILL happen. And efforts to do so are futile.

What we need to do is learn how to live with the outcome.

Btw, there is much green tech in our house. Solar panels for electricity and hot water. A lot of Ikea furniture made from recycled material. An edible garden, minimal lawn and very low water usage. Lots of other things.
