'Alarmists'? You mean people who accept the findings of SCIENCE? No, I will not lose all sanity and suddenly ignore the problem by pretending it doesn't exist.
Of course I support dealing with the Pacific Garbage Patch. But that problem is NO reason to ignore EVERY OTHER envornmental issue on the planet.
We need to reverse global climate change. That there are other things we should do doesn't change that fact.

NOPE This is "cosmetic" environmentalism.
Why pick garbage in the Pacific when increased CO2 leads to ocean acidification and slow death of coral reefs?
I am not worried about a bit of trash in the forest. I am more worried about additional 5°C which would get rid of the forest due to aridity/parasites/fires, etc.

That's not a climate issue it's a pollution issue and yes we should help other countries clean it up.

That's really not a climate related issue, although it's an obvious environmental one.

We could join VHEM, but even with no humans on the earth, the climate would still change!
