      It’s not that there don’t care as much as they don’t believe it will affect them personally. They believe they their wealth will protect them.

        I think plenty of them also think it’s far enough in the future that it won’t affect them (spoiler alert: it’s not)

      They don’t care about it getting worse. because global warming is their answer to every goal they have.

      It’s the classic “we don’t care if the valley floods, we live on the hill” mentality. They think that if/when the world devolves into chaos that they’ll be safe because they’re well off.

      It was the government doing window guidance that caused their mess, how do you blame the people who made successful companies that gave Japan its first world living standard?
