You are not entitled to oxygen
You are not entitled to oxygen, in the same way that you are not entitled to food, shelter, healthcare, education, or any of those other things that people who get hot under the collar for "human rights," bray about. You want any of the aforementioned things, you work for them, or you sit on your bum looking sorry for yourself with your hand extended until some bleeding heart gives it to you. You are entitled to what you work for and nothing else, if development causes more pollution and climate change to happen? Tough shit, you'll just have to shuck out the dough for a gas mask or otherwise purchase your own space with clean air.
I own the oxygen on my property, I can do with it as I please. If I don't want you breathing it or exhaling in my presence, I am allowed to take measures to remove you from my presence. When you eat something stinky and displeasing to me, or you fail to demonstrate proper hygiene, what you are doing is violating the sanctity of my airways, forcing me to breathe in some piece of you against my will. This should rightly be seen as the violation of my right to privacy and property that it is, there is a slippery slope (a road to serfdom, if you will) in the socialistic doctrine that oxygen is something one is entitled to.
