Looks like we'll just have to adapt.

I agree. And not all the change is bad.

Amenity value of the global climate

This volume is a significant contribution to environmental economics. Its practical and policy implications offer a basis for valuing the consequences of climate change.

Ever since the Global Warming crackposts took over, I've wondered how having to use less fuel for heat and having a longer growing season could have a negative impact.

I didn't click on the link - but , my wife gets some wildlife magazine. (I get to contribute to the NRA, she gets her wildlife donation!)

Most of it was on global warming - the editorial was saying how the dems being elected was the world's great hope to stop global warming. (My wife hates dems and dosn't believe in GW - she may not renew!).

Anyway, one article had a story on moose in northern Minnesota and how they are disappearing due to global warming because winter temperatures are 27 (yes - TWENTY SEVEN degrees farenheight higher than normal). I figure they left off a decimal, or are complete idiots. (No - they're STILL idiots!)

I asked my son if the moose are too warm done south what do you think they'll do? (Move north said my 12 year old). Granted, individuals may not move north, but the population as a whole will.

Another article in the magazine was going on and on about all the wonderful "rare" tropical birds that are now being seen in Texas and how great it was. Seems one of the causes they came up with may be global warming. (Ya think!?)
