Anyway, good luck with hanging tough on the stance that global warming and anthopogenic origin thereof being mere political advocacy and opinion. I personally urge that people still holding that view put their money behind their convictions. Like buying up low-altitude coastal real estate in Kiribati that science-deluded natives believe to be in danger from rising ocean levels. The Maldives is another good prospect. If you're right, you have one hell of an investment opportunity in low-lying areas. I say: Strike while the prospects are, um, high, Andrew. Get rich!
My personal belief is that one day, got no idea when, we'll see an end to talks about global warming / climate change and it will end up the same as the "Mayan end of time" prophecy predictions, which were really just a end of one cycle and start of a new cycle. In the early '70s it was talk of global cooling. And whilst today is hot, you might expect that, we are as close [in distance] to the Sun as we'll be for the whole year. And no, I won't be buying up land anywhere in particular. Cheers A.
