Of course, but your feet deserve better.&nbsp; Imagine a carefree existence where you can be a light unto the universe instead of a dirty, polluting, egotistical monster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All this may sound too good to be true, but climate change denial is surprisingly simple.&nbsp; All you must do is pretend that climate change does not exist and offer vague, non-specific counter evidence when questioned.&nbsp; Humans did not cause the Ice Age.&nbsp; The full impact of global warming will not be felt for another two or three decades.&nbsp; At that point you will be too rich to care.&nbsp; Why worry now about things that will not affect you in the future?&nbsp; You matter.&nbsp; You are important.&nbsp; You deserve not to be burdened with other people\u2019s problems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take charge of your life and deny man-made climate change.&nbsp; It is out of your control.&nbsp; A little push against science will not hurt you. A few hundred million people dying might just be the perfect solution to human overpopulation. I beg you to please pretend that your personal well-being is more important than everyone else.&nbsp; Consume to your hearts content or you will drown in a nightmarish bin of unnecessary asceticism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Climate change is causing sea levels to rise, species to go extinct, and widespread water scarcity and food insecurity.
