The claim that most warrants justification in this context is:

There’s no point in trying to fight climate change as individuals.

This statement suggests a complete dismissal of individual efforts in combating climate change, which is a strong claim that requires support or explanation. Student #1's argument implies that only government action is valid, making it essential to justify why individual actions are considered ineffective.
