But even to start to make these adjustments we need to
all be onside and that is where the problems begin.
At the moment sea levels are at an all time low, so it was only a matter of time before the pendulum swung the other way allowing sea levels to rise. For the last 2000 years, apart from the occasional storm, the weather has been largely benign, but that doesn't mean that it will remain so. It's controlled largely by the sun and the positioning of the planets. So expect some surprises in the next century.
All the man made climate change numpties are going to look pretty stupid when the best efforts of mankind have done nothing to prevent the major changes in the climate and weather patterns. And that's assuming everyone does their share of planet saving. They will probably use the excuse that we didn't do enough, or were too late. The usual rhetoric...There's one thing for sure; Someone is going to make a great deal of money out of the climate change fiasco.
