There's sort of a 'they' - but that leads to paranoia, so it's best not to stress it.
Only by seeing such clarity as the solution to a more difficult and painful conscious knowledge (we're getting into the concept of action here) such as global warming can we make the clarity stay present to us.
Possibly just knowing about global warming and accepting it as inevitable (one of the goals of the "deniers") is enough to put the clarity back into the "No Action" file, though. Align culture with our nature.
