I'd love it if things could stop exactly where they currently are. Unfortunately, they won't.

Not if you want reliable food production. Milder, wetter winters and drier, heatwave-prone summers and more unpredictable weather in general is hitting farmers badly. One recent example is potatoes [1]. "Hose-pipe bans" becoming a normal phrase in our lifetime is not a good sign of things to come.

I think Budha taught his disciples that you should not accept anything,even what I tell you, if it doesn't resonate with your own experience.
So it's kinda understandable when someone looks outside and sees their weather get milder and more peasant and says "well I hear a lot of bad stuff but I see good stuff"
Not saying that's correct but it's understandable.
The other thing that I think has done a disservice to credibility is the blaming of too many things on climate change that are sort of blatantly unrelated. So someone goes "ok, I don't experience the bad stuff and I can plainly tell that at least some of what I hear is not accurate, so I am going to discount it all and go with my experience"
That's highly subjective but I can't say it's a suboptimal strategy to anything else.
