Every fucking climate scientist on the planet was getting it right since the 60s. This idea that climate change was only mainstream science after 2005 or whatever is nonsense.

Very true, though mainly the point I was highlighting in the video was the land use of large highways, and emphasis on cycling over cars.
If by 60s you mean 1860s, yes.
Edit. 1861 article built on the 3 decades of preceding science : The Bakerian Lecture: On the Absorption and Radiation of Heat by Gases and Vapours, and on the Physical Connexion of Radiation, Absorption, and Conduction
Al Gore invented climate change as revenge on the world after he lost the 2000 election

We've known since at least 1930, we just haven't done anything about it.
Much like tobacco and sugar, the producers KNEW the consequences long before the general public, and worked against the public's comprehension. Not nothing; we've been doing propaganda!
"IT'S OVERWHELMING!" - you fucking said it, Bill.
