Why don't people care about global warming?

Update:

So, we all know about global warming. But nobody does something about it. We stilll use paper cups, we still drive cars and trucks, we still buy wooden furniture, we still build power plants etc. Why is this happening?

    Most of us with some basic knowledge and a minimum of experience have seen the same old con game over and over and over again. Some people seem to enjoy being conned. All someone has to do is tell them they are saving the planet and they are ready to sacrifice other people's money at the drop of a hat and they feel so generous and they feel like super heroes. They are the new "green" hornet fighting corporations and profit for the planet.

    There's no need to care about imaginary problems like global warming.

    The argument usually goes that they're being asked to pay a tax for the air they breathe .. any rational person can see that wont fix anything .. if they were going after the corporations that would be a different story but that's not what they're doing, corporations are generally exempt .. so as things stand what it boils down to is it is nothing but a gigantic scam to tax people for breathing ..
