We Are All ‘Climate Test Dummies’ Now, Providing Data On How Humans Respond To Extreme Weather

We have turned ourselves into test subjects for the single most terrifying “crash” the world will ever know — the crash of a livable climate.

Since we have done so wittingly, and continue blissfully subjecting ourselves to the impending climate crash without making any serious effort to stop it in spite of the gravest warnings from the most credible sources, that makes us little better than crash test dummies

It really makes me wonder how people who look at the climate can't permit themselves to consider what happens when the sub tropical jet moves to 35 degrees north and south of the equator and everyone closer to the equator than that finds themselves in tropical conditions. Sure the temperate climate will extend much further poleward, we have studied that to death, but what about when Miami weather takes up a home in Wilmington, North Carolina?
Always appeal to a man's enlightened self interest, you can trust him to look out for himself honestly, It's when you appeal to his Honor or the Common Good that he stops paying attention.
