I spent most of my life, well right up to 2016 actually, totally ignoring politics. However, I did get involved with forums discussing Global Warming and Climate Change. I had decided it was all a hoax but when I talked to actual scientists I realised that I did not know as much as I thought i did.
That was when I learnt how to check facts and use the scientific method to my advantage. I regard that now as my training ground. I still think it is a hoax, by the way!
It's not all or nothing...
The earth IS warming, and has been for thousands of years as we come out of an ICE age.
The hoax part is communists trying to pin that natural warming on humans, and trying to tax (steal) us to death for something that we have not much control over ...
So yes, it is warming, but shit like CO2 actually HELPS plants thrive. The earth was the greenest it's ever been... Millions of years ago when the earth had the Highest concentrations of CO2.
According to the Vostok ice core data, earth has gone through four cycles of heating and cooling lasting about 100,000 years each time. We are still in an ice age because we still have ice at the poles. When we are not in an ice age things get a lot warmer and that happened quite naturally in the past.
CO2 levels have been at least 17 times as high in the past quite naturally.
The main issue thrown up by the Vostok data (that was the graph Al Gore showed in his Inconvenient Truth film) is that it is actually the warming the precedes the CO2 increase by a few centuries. So it is more likely that warming causes CO2 rather than CO2 causes warming.
You are right about the money aspect. First you get a wealthy country on board so you have cash available to bribe the poorer countries. You can then rely on "democracy" to get your way. The bribed countries will vote with you. Then you increase the scare until the whole world agrees to a global tax which will eventually be used to finance your new globalist government.
