Yes. And if we had collectively listened to the scientists, we'd be halfway to dealing with it, the US would be leading in green tech, and we'd be hopeful for the future. The scientists talk about GW's physical causes (mostly fossil fuel emissions) but the real cause is increasing wealth disparity, tribalism, and political corruption.

The right wing patsies of Easyspeak and Doublethink want "freedom" from oppressive governments and taxes. However this washes out, they will have oppression and taxes up the wazoo. We will have either a fascist government with no restraints, or a reality-based government racing against the clock.

Still, they achieved their main goal: making LGBT folks, ethnic minorities, liberals, and other overlapping groups miserable.
