There is no evidence to suggest that the Modern Warming period will continue indefinitely. It never has in the geologic past, even with atmospheric CO2 levels far higher than today, and increasing far more rapidly.<br /><br />And what do we do if we put all of our "sustainability" eggs in the Global Warming basket, and it never comes to pass?<br /><br />Rather than preparing for Global Warming as the only possible scenario, we would be far better off as societies to become more resilient no matter how the climate changes. It's like being self-sufficient as an individual: no matter what happens one is better able to take care of oneself in changing conditions.Michael A.
