For my twopenneth worth. The climate is changing. It has done so for millennia out of hand. It will do untill the sun becomes a red giant and consumes all the inner planets.
It will be globally warmer and globally colder than it is now.
We should all be asking what are the plans to deal with the consequences of the changes that are going to happen.
One third of the worlds population lives on the coast or on rivers that, should all the ice melt, will be 65 meters below sea level.
If the gulf stream is driven south by an increase in fresh water melt from the polar ice cap, the climate in the UK will be the same as Northern Canada. Poler bears in Yorkshire anyone?
Just about all of the evidence presented by people and organisations with credibility is refuted by others with credibility.
As a fully paid up cynic; I note that a lot of people are getting rich out of climate change.
It's not how we stop change. We can't. We may slow it a bit, but it will change. It wil be how we deal with the change.
I've bought a house on a hill.
