The last few lines provide the entire context of his argument:

Why do greens so readily burn their credibility with such wild exaggerations?
The answer of course is they truly believe what they are saying. In their minds, all that CO2 and smoke really is a disaster on the same scale as a ruptured nuclear reactor.
Which is why we shouldn’t take what they say seriously.
