'd rather deal with
the consequences of a continued warming scenario ..

Change is change.

The infrastructure is all built around the climate of the past few hundred years, if not the past thousand. Any change will require great investment from those who can make it, and great loss to species who don't know about investment, or those who know, but can't afford it.

(As a geoengineer, which I'm not), I can warm things up easier than cool them down. All I have to do is sprinkle ashes on the glaciers attacking Minn.

But Triff, those glaciers leave such beautiful features behind, the Kettle Moraine, Lake Geneva, the oddly displaced vegetation, the Mastodons frolicking across the Rio Grande.. oops.. well forget the Mastodon part. Then, there'd be the new land bridge across the Bering sea.. talk about an immigrant problem!
