Local Planning and the Call 1 Climate Planning Objection 1: ""Climate change is a lie. It can’t be proven. The climate change myth is a political maneuver."" 2 Climate Planning Objection 2: ""We don’t have the will. We don’t have the money."" 3 Climate Planning Objection 3: ""Climate change is not that bad. It’s only a few degrees. It’s just an attention‐getter. Scientists are using the issue to get their research funded."" 4 Climate Planning Objection 4: ""All change brings both good and bad. Besides, the climate change cure would probably be worse than the disease."" 5 Climate Planning Objection 5: ""We have bigger problems than climate change and other priorities."" 6 Climate Planning Objection 6: ""Retreat is not an option. Everywhere in the world is prone to some kind of natural disaster. We need to take a stand."" 7 Climate Planning Objection 7: ""It’s a lost fight. It’s too late."" 8 Climate Planning Objection 8: ""Someone will fix this. Some new technological invention will save us."" 9 Climate Planning Objection 9: ""The future can’t be predicted. Climate models are unreliable."" 10 Climate Planning Objection 10: ""I’ll be dead when this happens.""
