[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is what it is now.

The [b]US only has three more years[/b] to get with the program or massive climate change will be guaranteed. Since Republicans are undoing everything that was done to help in previous years, it is what it is.

If you live or vacation in a flood plain, it would be best not to do so any longer.

People who voted Republican wanted personal responsibility, now they have it, just like in the "good old days" when people just die without a national response.

At least Mexico is coming to the aid of Texans[/b]. [/quote]

the end of that conference, they said global warming represented a threat to humanity, second only to global nuclear war. If the world had followed the conclusions from that conference, we would not have the problem we face today and we would have saved trillions of dollars and millions of lives.

Now, it is too late.

I’ve never said this before to the media, but it’s too late. I say that because I go by science and Johan Rockström, the Swedish scientist who heads the Potsdam Institute, has defined nine planetary boundaries. These are constraints on how we live. As long as humans, like any other animal, live within those nine constraints, we can do it forever, and that includes the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, the pH of the oceans, the amount of available fresh water, the nitrogen cycle, etc.

There are nine planetary boundaries and we’ve only dealt with one of them — the ozone layer — and we think we’ve saved ourselves from that threat. But we passed the seventh boundary this year, and we’re in the extreme danger zone. Rockström says we have five years to get out of the danger zone.

If we pass one boundary, we should be shitting our pants. We’ve passed seven![/quote]
