So all of the cheatsheet is basically "it's not bad because there are worse things"?

You can try explaining why it's not "that" bad for the environment, the planet is still worse off than when it didn't exist.

Let's carry on inventing new ways to spend energy, but it's ok because we still spend more energy for other stuff.

It's kinda sad how the world saw climate change, said it was bad, but in the end decided to do nothing about it.
