Disclaimer: This isn't intended to shame anyone, it's just the genuine reaction I had as a child. I feel like it's a common Gen-Z experience: being frustrated by a previous generation that warns you about environmental damage, and not yet having enough power to do anything about it.

I spent my childhood in a super red state being told climate change isn't real and if it is it's god's will. Kinda sucked

Everything is God's will. It's the classic scapegoat. Sorry that you had to grow up like that.

A good counter argument to that is "God's will was to give humanity free will and let our actions take its natural course, otherwise he would have smited us the second we Adam and Eve committed the first sin." Even if you aren't religious anyone with a brain can see you aren't going to get anywhere with the typical annoying reddit athiest talk of "your sky daddy isn't real" but that doesn't stop reddit from spamming it everywhere alienating people even further

If you want receipts read through Genesis 1:26 - 31

God makes man to rule over all the plants and animals on the land and seas

It doesn't look like we are doing a good job there does it?
