The world have worse problems to deal with. Whatever happens to the climate, we will adapt.
He didn't go into the consequences very much at all, I agree... there are plenty of studies about that, though, that make it appear to be a Very Bad Thing. Would you like me to dig some of them up?
You could, but it's not going to change my mind.
I just plain don't care about my carbon footprint. And I'll be dead by the time there is any kind of a significant effect.
How "bad" could it be anyhow?
Sea level rises, then move, or build dykes. It's not gonna happen overnight.
Toxins & nutrient depletion in the soil is going to make croplands infertile before the climate will.
Monsanto and their GMO crops is more of a threat than the climate is.
And so there might be major storms, sounds exciting to me. A little chaos now and then keeps the world from getting too boring.
Anyway, meteorologists can't even get the 10 day forecast right, do you really think they know with any accuracy what will happen in 100-200 years?
