We can not continue listening to the alarmists. There is an infinite number of things that can go wrong. Yet here we still are.

> Yet here we still are.

By we, you are talking middle to upper income countries not the poor countries in Africa and especially no the islands states in the Pacific. Or maybe you are not one of the relatives of the poor souls were lost in 50C heatwave in Canada last week.

If those do not apply to you, sure we are here. Just add, at the moment.

Those are also still here (with exception of the heat wave victims, which seem out of place in an affluent country. I would suspect failure of politics/health system. But heat waves have always happened).
We have never listened to alarmists, or the world would be carbon neutral by now.
