This is my anti climate change solution blog entry. I think it's interesting because these two viewpoints, more than anything, demonstrates the complexity of our global predicament. I think Bjorn Lomborg's talk misses some major issues, like he assumes everyone is simply going to be rich, I'd like to ask at the expense of what resources and environmental degradation, and he doesn't address the question of overpopulation. Yet it's still an interesting video either way.

As for the other article from predict weather.com.. well, you decide.

ARTICLE

Like I said, it's all about complexity, and when any civilization enters a period of over-complexity it usually spells trouble for the future. This mainly because in a space of over-complexity we as a species become unable to perceive the necessary adaptive moves.
