I never heard that about the period, but the planet didn't have billions of
people to support then. So let's keep in mind that 3-4 degrees warmer than
today would end civilization as we know it. Gore and Brown are only easy
targets for the polluting industries; thousands of climatologists and other
scientists and the IPCC have amassed enough evidence over the years to keep
us all awake nights. And all of us with children hope against the evidence
that they're all wrong. We could adjust to some gradual climate disruption,
but the powers that be have too much invested in endless growth on a finite
planet. My view is we're already into the dieoff, with a billion going
without enough food every day. My view is money and power rule, and the best
I can do is avoid taking part in the system where possible and try to live
more sustainably on the land, and I sleep at night. And start getting ready
for the growers market today.
