Some people are in denial - that scientific facts aren't true and that we can't do anything about it; so let's just go ahead and destroy the planet in the face of all the evidence and all the warnings.  There are seven billion people on the planet severely stressing the environmental health of the air that we all depend on for life and health.  And we all need to do something to reduce the impact of carbon burning.  Throwing up on hands in desperation and manufacturing fake news certainly don't help!!  No one intentionally wants to destroy jobs, but we all know that there is constant change in our economy that will mean some old, unneeded jobs will disappear as new jobs are created in a new more complex economy.  Some of the new jobs will require retraining.  Stubbornly holding on to coal burning and oil burning jobs when we are in the midst of an alternative energy revolution is bad policy and will hurt us much more in the future.
