Is it also possible to change the minds of nihilists and climate loonies by sharing a pro-human point of view during a verbal or written exchange?, or are the minds of nihilists and climate loonies lost forever?

Asking: for the world.

What is a climate looney? Typically nihilistic attitudes wouldn’t involve strong opinions about policy either way, anyway not mentioned in this study as far as I can tell.

Ontological world views can definitely change over time….

Cutting down every forest to feed your fires won't help you in the winters to come. I don't know what sort of brain rot it takes to think planning ahead is a bad thing.

Calling folks who see humans as dangerous invasive species names is not going to convince them that humans are great and we should totally have 6 kids each to prop up the economy...

Unless by pro human you are advocating for quality of life vs quantity.
