Let's be logical here - 7 Billion people, most of them use tools that are reliant on carbon fossil burning - i.e. pollution. Do you really think that this won't be an issue? Let's compare it to smoking - nicotine tar does do damage to human lungs. For years, the cigarette companies knew it was an issue, but lied and said that there was no issue. Science didn't know enough, so couldn't prove it. The cigarette companies lied to protect their profits - much like the mining & petroleum companies are doing now I believe. Whole countries economies are tied to this archaic form of fuel - to rely less on them will destroy said economies. Those at the very top of the economy chain do not wish to lose money, or more importantly, power. They will, and are, doing everything in their control to ridicule the documented issues, so that they will continue to financially benefit from fossil fuel burning etc.
