It's a case of people attaching data to their political and financial agendas to describe a situation which they can't demonstrate other than with predictions and other stuff we can't check on.
Basically it's a very old scam where you tell the peasants there's a gold eating dragon in some unreachable place they can't visit to see, then charge them money and get them to obey you so you can protect them from it. If anyone objects you call them a witch or something and the really stupid people , ( who've been told they're clever and rewarded for believing it ), will gang up on them and burn them at the stake !

No point in arguing with those people really because they don't understand logic and they don't think for themselves, but rely on what
" clever people" tell them.
A typical post that pretends to be on the side of logic and evidence but is as much fantasy as the fairy story you chose to use. Alt-right, flat earth, conspiracy theorising again whilst calling out those who don't agree with your opinion as stupid.

97% of all climate scientists around the globe agree - that the world is warming at a much faster rate than could be explained by natural processes (in fact the natural processes have slightly held back the rate of warming) with associated extreme weather events, and that it is human activity especially since the 1950s that is the cause. The climate studies are peer reviewed and have been subjected to constant and rigorous challenge. The folksy appeal to ignore 'experts' and scientists, and instead adopt the lead of the flat earthers and Big Oil - Big Gas - Big Coal coalitions to Make America Gormless Again is pathetic. The compromised scientists are those in the 3% who are paid by the polluters and don't open their work up to rigorous scientific challenge.

We are very close to the point of no return where your claim that humans have 'negligable' ability to effect a positive change will become true.

The real fairy story you are peddling is the one that sees scientists as the pawns of the great Globalist Conspiracy (successors to the Templars, the Illuminati and the other famous global conspiracy theories that were most popular in the 1930s). In your world they are the evil cabal out to stop the common, right thinking, patriotic man - now championed by Boris Johnson and Donald Trump - from living their lives the way they want without a care. Except the gas-guzzlers would screw the world in the process and Johnson and Trump only care about themselves.
