This is why I don't have faith in humans making serious change until after driving head-on into a wall. There have been countless documentaries, youtube videos, books, seminars, activist movements, government campaigns, grassroots campaigns, etc etc etc to educate people on how serious climate change is and why it's a big deal. But the average person, even the educated person, has an extremely difficult time taking things seriously unless (1) they personally take interest, or (2) shit hits the fan and they realize the risks were serious. If I weren't personally interested in the environment, I'd probably be just as ignorant. I don't think there are any _viable_ politically correct solutions to the issue, so we'll just have to wait and see how bad we let things get
