Careful to assume too fast

If every piece I've ever written and every comment I've ever made is reviewed I don't think anyone will find that I suggest our fossil fuel activities in the last 150 years have not had an impact on climate change. So have clear cutting the broad leaf and pine forests of North Amercia, so have cutting down the rainforests in South America (and other places), so have building dams and flooding massive pieces of real estate on pretty much all the continents, and hundreds of other verifieable devasting consequances of our manipulations to the ecosystem all around the world.

Let's talk about the potential atmospheric consequances of the Argus experiments in 1958?

Show me ONE peer reviwed study that indicates ANYTHING we do will have a benefical impact on where we can expect our weather and climate to go in the comming humdred years?

If we had that kind of certainty about how well our predictions will hold up in the coming decades and given the historic documented social vulnerability to agriculture, food supply, shipping, and social stability then why are we not evacuating the major cities of NYC, Hong Kong and countless other seaside population centers?

It seems the logic falls flat at that point.

How could I look my grandchildren in the eye and say I knew about this and I did nothing?
