re: #206 researchok

Lots of good points here. The Bangladesh reference (as well as those islands in the pacific that are slowly ‘sinking’ are watershed events that are being ignored.

Still, unless China and India get on board, I don’t see how anything we can do will make a difference.

In many ways, we really are playing for time.

Step 3 of the right wing’s opposition to doing anything about climate change, right here.

1) Deny it’s happening.

2) Claim “a little warming might be good for the planet”.

3) “If China and India do nothing, there’s no point in us doing anything.”

4) Repeat from 1).
