It might be true.
Wealthy people are wealthy because they don’t like to throw money away.
Even the ones that talk big about climate change not only DONT DONATE, but they go around in private Jets pumping out fumes :)
Lower income folks might be persuaded more easily because they see the words “scientists” and “climate change” in the same sentence.
Either way, who gives a damn :)
As long as it’s their own private sucker mom, screw em.
I don’t want the govt spending a DIME to fight “climate change”

It’s my contention that your alleged “environmental footprint” is directly proportional to the sum of the money you earn and the money you spend.
People who are truly concerned about their “environmental footprint” would therefore earn as little as necessary and spend as little as possible.
I don’t see anybody in Hollywood, the gaslight press, or Congress doing that.

This is proof that wealthier people got that way by being SMART.
A wealthy person understands what money is worth. They know that— EVEN IF AGW WAS REAL — 120 Euros is meaningless. It can do a lot more good locally than pissing in the ocean to make the tide level rise.
Once again, leftists draw the lines, then plot the points.

And the results indicate that participants with fewer resources were prepared to contribute significantly more to the public good than wealthier people, sometimes up to twice as much. To me, the results indicate that people with lower incomes also have lower IQ's and buy into the Climate Change crap. My hypothesis is every bit as conclusive as theirs. The old correlation/causation argument.

Many of the wealthy who pump for climate change radicalism realize it is a way for them to siphon money out of the lower and middle class and put it in their own pockets.

I didn’t think of that.
Sickening.

Different scenario. Bring your tax bills showing how much has been confiscated from your earnings by the government. The wealthy pay massive taxes...much of which is directed to social spending and asinine climate change. They have paid enough.

They should talk to the people in China and India.

Some of us are old enough to have lived through the global cooling hysteria (1970s) which became the global warming hysteria (1990s) which is now just the climate change hysteria.
Surprisingly the cure for all three of them was exactly the same-- surrender your money and political power to us and we will fix it.

You are correct. Smart people know that the sun controls the climates of all its planets.
