Well at some point we need to stop letting people believe that climate change denial is a reasonable stance to have. Letting folks stew in the consequences of their choices is effective.

Being friendly is far more effective than trying to punish people to make them agree with you. Especially when there's no immediate and obvious consequence of their individual actions.

Of course you're right. It's best to continue being friendly until they'd literally die outside and wouldn't need persuading.
