And computer models DO INDEED PROVE that the Earth's climate is suffering from a energy imbalance due primarily to infrared opaque gasses in the atmosphere that were released by relatively recent anthropogenic mechanisms. The end of life on Earth may not be nigh, nor even the end of human life. But the extra energy in the atmosphere will create more tumultuous weather events, push ecological systems further toward the poles, and turn once arable land into arid deserts. Concomitant with these modifications will be geographic shifts in economic and political power. These are not the ravings of a prophet waving a sacred book. These are the considered, published and peered reviewed conclusions of mathematical and scientific analysis based on carefully collected data and carried out by hundreds of intelligent, educated professionals.

It's the deniers who are the religious zealots here, waving Ayn Rand, invoking invisible hands and denying the results of science when they happen to disagree with their favorite idiot-ologies.

I wouldn't call them pseudo religious environmentalists. They are what they are: scientists.
As opposed to religious belief. Which is simply based on irrational conviction. I mean, you can disbelieve climate change. Just because you don't think it's true.
I mean, I can say the moon is made outta cheese. And firmly believe it. That isn't based on science. Just my belief. And, again, I can profoundly believe it. But I'd be wrong. So, again, people can believe what they want to believe.
I mean, we can take no action. But say the scientists are right. Then what?
