I will begin to consider their line of reasoning as soon as they remove all fossil fuel derived items from their lives, be it transportation, communication, clothing or food. then they will at least have the moral standing to make the argument, although I imagine it might change their views.
I’ll add that Doppler radar runs on electricity and the US electric grid runs primarily on fossil fuels, nuclear and hydro. Even where the grid has higher levels of intermittent weather dependent energy harvesting machines (wind and solar), you can’t rely on them to produce electricity when you need it most, during storms, at night or in the coldest months. So, you need fossil fuels to keep the life saving Doppler machines operating.
They treat pollution as a form of industrial delinquency rather than a natural phenomenon. So it’s not a matter of being objective. Oddly enough, there’s nothing more important than to be objective when protecting oneself from threats, but environmentalists are not the people to do that.
