What’s key, and you can incorporate data into this, is trying to build a narrative for people which is positive in terms of its future outlook. It’s: “This is the world we can build. We can address climate change alongside other issues. It’s not going to cost you a ton of money. It might save you money. We’ll have cleaner air. We’ll have more energy security.” Which is more appealing than “We’re all going to die from climate change.”

That certainly sounds more persuasive to me.

It's a good article about how advocating for the non-climate benefits of climate solutions might get one further than using the climate argument again.

I like, but also chuckled at this passage.:

What is the appropriate response from the scientific community? To cede the political discussion to nonscientists?

What scientists are often not that good at is explaining to the layman what this actually means for them. You have temperature targets of 1.5 degrees or two degrees. We need to explain in clear language what that means for the average person.

What does a world at two degrees of warming look like?

It is a hard question to answer

Logic isn't subjective.

I didn't enter into this conversation to contribute to some well researched discussion that you keep demanding from everyone that doesn't agree with you. You seemed like you wanted perspective from someone who understood the pro-gun position. I provided it, goodbye.

You seem confused why people don't want to agree with you politically when you're being a dick to them.

It must be some massive coincidence

There isn't need for data, it's just logic.

If you were going to rob a store and the person ahead of you openly has a gun on their hip, you're either going to leave, take them out, or steal their weapon.

If your're the one openly carrying, every person within arms reach could be a threat, and you'll never know how much OCing actually deterred any action.

If want data, feel free to find some, don't respond to every argument put into this thread with "I'd like to see some data"

If you have money, you can set that challenge to Easy with some cocaine

I'm in favor of mandatory civil service before college, most kids could use a few more years of development before picking a career

What makes you think that your vitriol is in my interests?

That explains why site:reddit.com continues to be the best way to use Google, I thought I was just stuck in my habits

There's two main reasons. For one, people get uncomfortable around someone open carrying in public, so it's more polite to have it concealed. A common mentality is that people who OC (open carry), do so for the attention, not protection.

And the second reason is that if someone was planning on starting something, openly carrying a gun could make you the first target, either for attack or for theft of your gun.

Or they could install a pihole instead that'll cover guests to their network

That seems easy enough to put into a disclaimer to put into the tools: "Don't use this to make money off copywrited characters"
