    True, and I have no problem with that. It's just another reboot that will take a millisecond in time.

    But those who suffer the most and the soonest will be those who are already suffering in the poorest, driest (and wettest) parts of the earth. And that suffering was both avoidable and largely the result of our own choices, even after we became aware of the facts. We have an obligation that is grounded on empathy and compassion, do we not?

      Ok. Earth as we know it will be over. Either way, bye bye.

        It's still the same monkey people who would rather have gold bars than see their fellow monkey people safe. The predations of the worst of us reflect on all of us. If nothing else we didn't flush the Republicans out of the gene pool in time.

          Yeah, but your recent comments on this topic seem inconsistent with your usual reaction to Scooby's negative fatalism.

          Or do I need to either read back or just take my nap.

            I'm talking about the imminent extinction of the human race. Tell me where I'm being pessimistic.

              Which isn't likely to occur for......

              In the meantime I have kids and eventual grandkids I'd like to not have to be subjected to having fewer and fewer habitable cities to choose from at a rate greater than what it would be if more people gave a s**t. We are not yet at that point of no return.

                I have a daughter who if she'd get off her as-s might have children herself one day (husband's not gonna trap himself, honey). I'd like them not to live in a post-apocalyptic hellhole. As fun as burning the rich at the stake is going to be in 2025, that will just release more carbon into the air.

                          Those crazy Finns ...

                          They're claiming we're less than 10% of CO2 so we're a <10% burger when it comes to climate change.

                          NO EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE FOR THE SIGNIFICANT ANTHROPOGENIC CLIMATE CHANGE
                          ...

                          The IPCC climate sensitivity is about one order of magnitude too high, because a strong negative feedback of the clouds is missing in climate models. If we pay attention to the fact that only a small part of the increased CO2 concentration is anthropogenic, we have to recognize that the anthropogenic climate change does not exist in practice. The major part of the extra CO2 is emitted from oceans [6], according to Henry‘s law. The low clouds practically control the global average temperature. During the last hundred years the temperature is increased about 0.1°C because of CO2. The human contribution was about 0.01°C.
                          ...

                          Because the anthropogenic portion in the increased CO2 is less than 10%, we have practically no anthropogenic climate change. The low clouds control mainly the global temperature.

                              It's incredible it's been so long. We are at, what, 100 years since the last true pandemic (Spanish influenza, 1918, 50M)? 35M from HIV/AIDS is barely 1M a year. That's in the noise for Mother Nature.

                                I just finished a report on the amazing things the Finns are doing to combat climate change. They’re way ahead of this sorry *** country.
