Research in changing weather patterns is largely financed by the insurance industry. It pays back for them to know in advance if any changes in world temperature will have an effect that impact on their business: Things like: Will a couple of degrees in world temperature increase the force of tornados? Will those tornados change their usual course? Then from those scenarios they can compile the increase in the risks they are covering. Obviously, the university establishment that do the research have keep coming back for more bribes from businesses to keep paying their salaries. Hence their interest in fuelling this debate. You see, this is about people trying to further their own interest. Saying that Holland is sinking and other BS is just to catch the eye of the VI (oops! the common people). Politicians, being who they are, find it easy to prey on fear. Then they come out making nonsense propositions such as: "All cars in California have to have zero emission by a certain date." If zero emission they may mean electric cars, right? Would you like to depend on a private transport that depends on the electrical utilities of California?
