We must also suffer the consequences of our past decisions. And for that, we must open our hearts to those in need.

If you can frame climate change as an alternate religion, or as one more of those issues where the pointy-headed liberal atheist scientists are trying to discredit the Bible, then you've already got a ton of people on your side who are concerned about heresy, other religions, or teaching evolution in schools.

It's easier to discredit the science than to say that climate change is a genuine issue but we don't want to do anything about it.
