To The Fundamentalists Climate Change IS God's Way. No Way They Will Accept Climate Change.

It does not seem possible to convince believers about climate change. They believe it is an act of God. They also believe that disaster would be part of rapture.

mankind free will and they make their own decisions and face the consequences of their own actions. That is what they fail to see when looking at climate change. We have the knowledge regarding our role in climate change and they ignore or justify it by blaming God for their own actions. They think forgiveness negates the results - it does not.

They have the 'free market' which automatically corrects all problems, provided you don't mess with it. Yes, it's 'faith based' but a different superstition.
