You speak with such authority on the "inevitablility" and "wasting resources." On what basis do you make these statements. I can tell you that the top experts in the field are debating what is inevitable and what can still be prevented. Adaption is definitely something we need to consider, but we ALSO need to stop making the same mistakes that are creating the problem. We can't ignore that we CONTINUE to add to the problem, inevitable or not.

I just want to know how you can speak with more authority than the likes of Jim Hansen and other top researchers in climatology?

(My wife is a climatologist who knows Jim Hansan, by the way. So my discussing what the experts are saying comes right from the top institutions in the country).
