Ándale, Ruth. People act as if the Founding Fathers were unwise (they didn't even have iPhones!) and keep trying to supplant America v. 1.0 with their own hubris. Sort of how Pfizer thought it could suddenly cure the common cold. We learn nothing and remember nothing.

Yep. Comes from the same place of emotional decision making that enables total manipulation of the public on any issue, any time, anywhere. Complex systems achieve a balance over time and they are often very sensitive to small changes. CO2 is a perfect example. More in equals more plants equals more oxygen equals less CO2 etc, not to mention the effects on heat, rain, snow, insects, fish and so on.
So, the same people who will tell you "climate change is a hoax and we don't need to tamper with CO2" will then tell you they want to eliminate the electoral college as though, poof, problem solved. There are first principles of logic and risk assessment that many people simply do not have and, of course, hubris blocks them obtaining those skills. The potential for making things even worse if they're wrong seems to elude the vast majority of people.
Well said , climate change is real the climate has always & will always be changeing. Humans sometimes do have some effect in smalll areas. Compaired to the actual size of the earth
The vast majority of the planet is unocupied. The best way to believe this is flying an aircraft at lower altitude so that the extent of emptyness can be seen.
Most people can't do this.
Second best is google earth.
Just spending a few hours will show most people how obvious this is.

First, do no harm.
