China is doing everything the West says they want to do without the alarmism. So it makes me think the alarmism is simply political performance.

I too would be less alarmist about climate change if my government was taking significant steps to address it.

Exactly. They're exaggerating to persuade the government to do something. But we don't look at the intent, we look at the effect. The effect is division. Because what the liberals cleverly do is they move the discussion from the solution to the belief. So it's never "climate change is real - should we do nuclear or solar?" it's "is climate change real?" that's their trap. It's not me that frames the discussion, it's the "powers that be". They frame it as "we need to convince people it is happening" rather than "it's happening, we need to convince people to adopt nuclear".
