Politically they are compared to any political party pretty much anywhere in the world. The US is very conservative on a world scale.

Some countries are others are not because they are better off than us. Also who said anything about socialism? A center left social democratic policy would be amazing for the US.

There's a reason for that.
The problem is not a lack of confirming evidence. There is plenty of evidence. The problem is that a bunch of people who have no significant training in climate science (or, for the majority, no training in any sort of science) refuse to actually look at the evidence because they've already made up their minds that everything the climate scientists say is hoax or fraud. I very much doubt, for example, that you will look very seriously at anything provided by actual scientists, such as the link below, for example.

Solving a problem is a different task from publicizing one.

These a 5 relatively inexpensive things that can mitigate if not reverse CO2 concentrations.

But many of those who want to end global warming want people to change the way the live even more. They don't want relatively cheap solutions. They want solutions that would make people sacrifice their standard of living.
Glad you posted this in order to show everyone how illogical these claims are.

Do you realize that right now this very minute the enormous amount of money global warming is costing and how it's affecting some people?

Alaska's Bering Sea Lost a Third of Its Ice in Just 8 Days
Quote:
At a time when the sea ice should be growing toward its maximum extent for the year, it's shrinking instead—the area of the Bering Sea covered by ice is now 60 percent below its average from 1981-2010.
Quote:
Villagers on Saint Lawrence Island who participate in an autumn whale hunt—and who rely on whale meat for survival—just got their first whale of the season in early February, Thoman said. The whaling season is usually finished by Thanksgiving, but this year, as the ice formed later than ever before, the whales did not migrate past the island like they usually do.
The consequences of climate change are already here.

This is their real goal.
No our goal is to educate the masses who are in denial so that this global warming becomes a discussion on how to solve it vs. debating that it's not human caused.
