Issues

Aren't the issues a) the burgoening population of developing nations b) multiplied up by the expanding consumerism there (900000 additional cars per annum in China plus vegetation loss throughout asia and S America.

Can't see that a few less holidays here, a bit more tax there or a few sluggish wind turbines will alter the prognosis. There is no cure, only adaptation and loss.

Still, back in the '70's a new ice age was the fear so probably a bit better than that.
