climate change- who cares?

In dubai newspaper reports today we read that climate change is happening, sea levels are rising and there may even be a movement of people as a result. Today sees the official oppening of the doomsday vault in Norway where millions of seeds will be stored for anything up to 10,000 yrs. These seeds are to be stored in case of food stuffs running out as a result of wars or the effects of global warming and climate change. This is a huge step towards saving the worlds essential food sources. And is a fairly big hint that climate change is happening faster than we had anticipated.
The question I'm asking, as we receive a lot of calls and feedback from listeners of the radio show, is who really cares about climate change? There are many differeing points of view, there are many sceptics. And I hear from a lot of people in the UAE that our generation will not be affected by it, we can't see it, we can't feel it so why should we care about it. Let's leave it to future generations to deal with.
