So, instead of the rich flaunting their self worth and showing off, perhaps they should help to clear up the messes they help create and help the poor from getting poorer. For example, look at all the green and clean waste going to landfill and the wonderful world of lithium products with their already evident environmental consequences.
Don't have an issue with the wealth of others but do have an issue with preachers that preach about adultery only to find that they have 3 mistresses.

Re climate change - it's not even about the fact that climate varies as it does, it's more about the rubbish about blaming CO2 for it's causes. If you claim to know more about the causes then you should surely also be aware that 'science' has been attempting to control the weather. The weather it seems has elements of non-conformity. I'm sure you're also aware that as with most things being attempted to be controlled, there are always unintended consequences. There are numerous cases of such but not necessarily relevant in this thread.
The current push into electrification at any cost (including more human exploitation) and even using mandates, already shows signs of consequences - I doubt anyone with common sense can argue that not being the case. Revolving door actions are also commonplace for such pushes.
So, if one cares so much about the climate and raise such fears as has been seen, they should also show such fervent care about other factors such as the consequences of their actions on the environment not only in their back yard but anywhere we all share the planet with. They should also lead by example - having 15 bedroom mansions are not exactly a good indication of overall caring when others live in tents or even without.
Much as I would loathe living in 15 bedroom mansions I also hope never to experience homelessness - but between the two the latter is certainly more humbling and from my family's background, I have a better snapshot of what the latter could feel like.
In any event, there is nothing I can do to change the current state of play - there are some dark forces that do a fine job. AIMO
