What We Are Doing To The Future

Politicians Think That If Matters Look Difficult, Compromise Is A Good Approach. Unfortunately, Nature And The Laws Of Physics Cannot Compromise - They Are What They Are.

We Have At Most Ten Years—not Ten Years To Decide Upon Action, But Ten Years To Alter Fundamentally The Trajectory Of Global Greenhouse Emissions.

'goals' And 'caps' On Carbon Emissions Are Practically Worthless, If Coal Emissions Continue, Because Of The Exceedingly Long Lifetime Of Carbon Dioxide In The Air.

As You Get More Global Warming, You Should See An Increase In The Extremes Of The Hydrological Cycle - Droughts And Floods And Heavy Precipitation.

Injection Of Environmental And Political Perspectives In Midstream Of The Science Discussion Cannot Help The Process Of Inquiry. I Believe That Persons With Relevant Scientific Expertise Should Concentrate, With Pride, On Cool Objective Analysis, Providing Information To The Public And Decision-makers When It Is Found, But Leaving The Moral Implications For Later Common Consideration, Or At Most For Summary Inferential Discussion.
