So, is that why there are climate change deniers, so they don't feel like hypocrites?
Are there other reasons to deny that the climate is changing, other than political ideology?
There is a certain portion of the political spectrum that is denying COVID-19, calling it things like, "Fake News", maybe we should "Ride it like a Cowboy". Certain stores with a political ideology defying state stay at home orders, certain Universities with a clear political ideology defying stay at home etc. Guess which end of the spectrum.

NASA is not a media outlet, last I heard.
The Earth's climate has changed throughout history. Just in the last 650,000 years there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat, with the abrupt end of the last ice age about 11,700 years ago marking the beginning of the modern climate era — and of human civilization. Most of these climate changes are attributed to very small variations in Earth’s orbit that change the amount of solar energy our planet receives.
The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia

OK, so in your view who is to blame?
Left: Do everything possible regardless of cost. Ignore the fact that it diverts economic progress to China with 10x the environmental cost.
Right: It doesn't exist.

No $hit. Climate has been changing since the dinosaurs.
Do more frequent, and more damaging weather events cost us anything?

Human activity, as NASA and science says. So, maybe we can, as humans,, do some things differently, that is, if we believe in science. like, IDK, investing in renewable energy. There are many things we can try to do, if we believe in the science. Look, I hope those that believe it isn't real, we can't change it, it's all natural, or shouldn't change, or it's a "liberal" conspiracy, I hope they are right, the outcome of being wrong from that perspective, is that we have spent some more money doing renewable energy for example. The downside of being wrong from the perspective of science, is that, possibly, we don't exist anymore, so there's that.
Look, i'm no stranger to the right-wing majority of online car enthusiast forums, I know I'm not going to change anyone's mind here. Believe in science, or believe in Donald Trump, we all have choices.
