People tend to stick to beliefs that support their own comfort zones, and disregard anything that is contrary to those. You tend to gravitate towards people who also share your beliefs, and steer away from those who don't. Ten years ago many people (including some scientists), did not want to believe in global warming, and there were many books published, pushing the argument that global warming is a myth. Now we know it is a fact, and whilst there is still debate on to what degree we humans have impacted on it, there is general agreement that it is real.
There is no doubt that the world is using its natural resources at an alarming rate, and anyone who thinks they will last forever is just deluding themselves.
