"Instead of constantly making futile attempts to control the weather, we should adapt to the ever-changing climate that has existed since time immemorial. After all, climate has always been a reality that impacts humanity from the outside, and we must align our actions accordingly." — from Google's translation of the AfD manifesto

Huh. I knew they were pretty openly fascist, but didn't realize they were climate deniers too.

Fascism is an inherently anti-truth ideology.

It is also funded by capitalism with vested interests in fossil fuels.

Fossil fuel interests seem to be a key funder of fascism. The fascists are their useful idiots

Until they find out their favorite sport events get cancelled because of weather, inurances get more expensive, food gets more expensive and they're suddenly not a fan of adapting. Then the blame game begins.
