Hi Wharf Rat; The hilarious article you posted says that "In the figure above, while the annual impact on the global economy from climate change remains positive until the late 21st century ...";

So let me get this straight.

You've brought us an article which *shows* that global warming has a positive impact on the global economy until "the late 21st century".

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! LOL!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

And so we're going to ruin our economies *now* for an advantage that won't happen until 75 years from now???

How the hell are you going to convince us that it's possible for an idiot in 2014 to have any idea what the global economy of 2090 is going to be like?

But your article admits that for several generations, (LOL!!!) global warming will improve our economies!

I just can't believe you bring crap like this to the discussion.

Arguing that global warming benefits the current economy is completely contradictory to your arguments that global warming causes expensive storms. Or do you now admit that those storms aren't as expensive as the advantages we gain from more CO2 in the air and higher temperatures (in the present)?

No, I know you. You're going to deny that the above article makes sense even though the article is by a group that you supported in the past.

With you it's not about truth or science. It's about politics. And when a scientist reverses a position that previously supported you, you will reject their new work.
