      they’ve been predicting, warning, screaming about it for 20-30-40 years and the toll on their mental health from the lack of action is significant.

        The gathered evidence indicates that predicting, warning, screaming does not work. It’s foolish to persue a known failing strategy.

            Since it seems like many people never figure it out, as they keep hitting their toes on the same stone, to the point it affects their mental health, I thought it usefull to make it explicit.

              or they just might think your premise is specious. You’re entitled to your opinions.
