I think it's often just a line of thought where people want to believe that we as humans can't impact the planet and that we are not so powerful. I think alot of major projects humanity has developed would disagree.
Yes, in recent years the critical mass of "green" technologies has made the climate change (business) paradigm profitable. But many holding on to the old carbon based technologies (e.g. coal and oil companies/conventional hydrocarbon combustion cars etc.) still may see climate change as a threat (to their survival).
