So how were all of the world's scientists persuaded to collaborate on some convoluted hoax, at the risk of jeopardizing their careers and reputations? What would they have to gain from this?
How does it not make far more sense and seem far more likely that the industries who produce and are dependent upon fossil fuels want to avoid the costs of becoming compliant to new regulations?
Take the tin-foil hat off and think this through.
As befits the situation. I have no time to spend validating this kind of treatment.
Some things are just not worth it. Among them, threads with a premise that distorts and misrepresents reality purposefully.

Yes, it's important to be held in high esteem by climate change deniers, anti-vaxxers, flat earthers, moon landing hoaxers, 9/11 inside jobbers, evolution deniers, etc.
they don't want to deal with it, the want to bury their heads in the sand and act like nothing's happening, worse than that they're all telling us to bury our heads in the sand too, and buying off politicians to further their ignorance.

The wonder and awe of "all things".
That's a good question!
Consider for a moment a 5 day weather forecast: it is mostly a best guess, and sometimes will be entirely wrong in a major way. But we like having a forecast, or building buildings to code for local conditions like fire or earthquake risk, so that just in case it happens, the odds are more favorable than would have been.
But how do you know whether you are hearing information that is not biased?
Ideally, we want a lot of actual observations and findings without an intermediary to filter or reinterpret. The more we learn the better.
As close as you can get to straight from the researchers doing observations.
Here's a good site for exactly that, in readable language, without a bias:

Interesting article. I feel the scientists know what they're talking about in terms of climate change, and we should take them seriously. That said, the issue of climate change is definitely used as a political weapon on people's minds. What else can anyone expect when big oil and coal spend a lot to try and discredit climate change through the same tequniques, though? In the end most folks just give up and default to what their side tells them they should think.
It's interesting to see how the war on information effects people - kind of unsettling, too. I guess that's what the cost for living in the information age is. There's plenty of information out their to confirm one's own biases, and plenty of echo chambers for people to hang out in.

Science = Religion when it comes to Climate Change.
Anyone that disagrees with the religion is being Blasphemous.

What I find especially ironic is this.
Lots of people believe in Jesus's Resurrection and that the Second Coming is going to be soon. They find the evidence for that clear and incontrovertible.
But the evidence for things like evolution and climate change aren't up to their high standards.
What's with that?
Seriously, why does anyone believe that the apocalypse is more likely to happen than biosphere collapse?

He thinks the best way to get people on his side is to throw veiled insults at anyone who might not be 100% on board with his apocalyptic visions for them and their children.

There is a climate change but human beings hardly can affect it, science found the ways to sequester carbon/methane and can somewhat mitigate the problem. Some use this issue for political and financial gains.

I am sorry but you are just whistling in the dark. Just because you so not know something does not mean that no one knows.

Humans are largely responsible for climate change and that can be rather easily demonstrated.

What? Me worry?
And you know what the future will be?

Pretty easy to predict when one can do the math.
I am betting that you do not even have a firm grasp on the Greenhouse Effect, and that is not controversial at all.

Your claims are pretty much all false. None of them are that of scientific consensus. Except for perhaps the last two, and those are correct.
