What's yours- that despite overwhelming evidence both scientifically, historically, and visually that carbon emissions cause cancer, kill thousands and result in birth defects, it's not a big issue?
It's sad because people are literally throwing the evidence right at you and you're just pushing it as far away from yourself as possible so you can act like you know what you're talking about. You're entirely self aware and know that you're wrong but just refuse to admit it under any circumstances, which just goes to show how stubborn you are

There are a litany of studies showing that still, in the modern age, coal pollution causes tens of thousands of early deaths in the US every single year.

We're in agreement that these mitigate the problem. However, because of these carbon regulation rollbacks - there is now a larger economic incentive for people to use coal power rather than renewable energy, which is the exact opposite of what you're saying here.

Threats to human life are not solved by 'just dealing with it.' this is obviously something that will affect us all so it's worth discussing
