Lefty Atheist: If you don't stop pouring carbon into the atmosphere [destroying the ozone layer, dumping brain damaging chemicals into the environment, etc.] it will cause a disaster, maybe the extinction of all life on Earth.

BAS: I'll be dead by then. Why should I care?
LA: But... but.... but...
