Building on The Republican race: Five degrees of climate denial, extended to the full seven stages:
- Stage 1: Denial
- Pre 2010 - The climate is not changing.
- Stage 2: Ignorance
- 2010 - The climate might be changing, or it might not, we just don't know.
- Stage 3: GAIA Bashing
- 2014 - Climate change is real, but it’s natural.
- Stage 4: We so tiny
- 2016 - Climate change is real, but humans aren't the primary cause.
- Stage 5: We so poor
- 2018 - OK, humans are the primary cause, but we can't afford to do anything about it.
- Stage 6: Acceptance
- 2020 - This is awful, why didn't you tell us it would be this bad!?!?
- Stage 7: Revert to Form
- 2024 - We would have fixed the climate if it wasn't for Obama.
