    Is it literally the case that they just don't give a goddamn about climate change and they're just going to get theirs while they can and to hell with everything else?

    Yup, that's my understanding. They probably aren't full on deniers, they know it's real, they just don't want to do the hard work and take the pay cuts that will progress us forward into the future.
