#260 / Trillion With A "T"



Let's set aside, for the moment, the idea that human-caused global warming is destroying the natural environment upon which our civilization depends, and that we need to do something about global warming because of that. Let's set aside the processes of extinction now underway, also linked to climate change.

Let's talk about money!

According to a report released by CitiCorp in August 2015, the damage to Gross Domestic Product from the negative effects of climate change is likely to be at least $44 trillion dollars. Could be more!

Yes, that's trillion with a "T!"
