They're both wrong. It's a right now problem AND a future problem.

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 11 months ago

That's true, but they still think it's a future problem.

It's not a "right now" problem for anyone with a lifetime of savings to insulate them.

It is. Increased extreme weather affects everyone. Granted, wealthy people are less catastrophically affected, but they're still not unaffected.
