I have heard the argument from my grandpa and other old people that there's a conspiracy of scientists and liberal media people to get more government funding by claiming climate change is real.

The madness behind this conspiracy theory is that the amount of money those scientists could get is minuscule in comparison to the enormous wealth generated by oil companies and oil producing nations. Wouldn't that be a much more reasonable conspiracy theory to believe in?

Asking for a reasonable point of view from a conspiracy theorist seems like an approach that is doomed to fail.
