What Will It Take?

Just what will it take for the public to stop kidding themselves about global warming, imagining if they ignore it will cease to exist?

• Florida vacation property flooded out.
• the World Trade Center site under water.
• a couple of Katrina-sized hurricanes a year to hit the USA.
• a dust bowl sized drought in the American heartland.
• over a million refugees in north eastern India and Pakistan fleeing the flood plains.
• death of most of the world’s forests.
• death of all the planet’s coral reefs where rich American tourists used to go snorkeling.
• mass extinctions of most species, including nice cuddly mammals.
• death of most fish in the oceans, replaced by giant poisonous jelly fish, as already happened to the coastal waters of Japan.
• stinking algal blooms on waterways and lakes.
• crop failures all over the world from drought and freakish weather.
