So by that standard almost no politicians believe in global warming.
Notice how all the rich actors who show up at charity events to “fight global warming” are also lining up to buy beach front property. (They also tend to fly around in private jets, but that’s a separate issue.)
Edit: The reason I didn’t use politicians in the above example is that not all politicians can afford beachfront property and the ability to do so correlates with other things that may be relevant to whether you want him in power.
As a possibility, buying current beach-front property is consistent with believing in global warming if you also believe that it is hard enough to predict where the new beach-front will be that it is cheaper (say, per future-discounted year of residence) to buy property on the current beach and then at the new location of the beach, than it is to buy any combination of properties today.
The inheritance question is actually rather different, as it is about buying beach-front-property-futures in the present.

Evidence?
Who needs evidence when you’ve got bile and cynicism?
