This doesn't work because pascals wager deals with an infinite reward/punishment compared to a finite one. Climate change and its consequences are finite

no pascal's wager doesnt work because its fucking retard.

>Mohammad says believe in Islam or you'll burn in hell fire for eternity
>Jesus says believe in Christianity or you'll burn in hell fire for eternity

How to Pascal's wager out of this one? You obviously can't choose both and there are probably a bunch of other conceivable faiths that also threatening you with hell fire unless you believe in them.

Climate change is not real and we do nothing = Everything is fine.
Climate change is not real and we restrict CO2 = We get fucked both by economic collapse.
Climate change is real and we do nothing = We get fucked by climate change.
Climate change is real and we restrict CO2 = Turns out we were too late and get fucked both by climate change and economic collapse.

Bringing up the economy an not accounting for supply and demand. Retarded.
The rest of your post is just nihilism, pessimism and sunk cost fallacy.

Pascal wager is that there is no cost to not believing God so you may as well believe just in case hell is a real thing. There is a cost to stopping climate change.

Pascal's answer to this was "lol obviously the other gods aren't real".
