..>>>The other one is the element of the policy process where you're supposed to decide whether to prevent or adapt. I've argued here for the adaptation approach on global warming. Most people who are attentive to the issue fall into two groups--those who are frantic to prevent it and those who deny it.>>>

You are well on your way to winning that argument as no effective program has yet been conceived in the way of completely stopping the effect if it even exists.

It is right to worry, but we mostly worry about the wrong things. Like the Russian nukes,like terrorists attacking with bombs, not our own aircraft. Like porous Canadian borders, or

The threat( and worry) of global warming can be useful in convincing cities to clean up their air, to cut auto pollution, to find alternate fuels, to bring efficiencies to all energy uses and to fund studies of the effect of deforestation.
Convert worry into action and lessen the worry.
