        At least they will be feeling the real consequences, regardless of their blindness to the cause, which was their own actions.

      It takes sustained “reality doesn’t not match internal model” for anything to happen. I’ll give them ten years for them to start saying “maybe I was wrong”. People are very very good at ignoring something they don’t want to see. Citation: global warming.
