My colleagues and I often talk about global warming: both about the science and what mankind can and should do about it. We are pretty much on agreement about two points:
(1) Global warming due to human production of greenhouse gases will significantly change the climate of the planet by the end of this century.
(2) Mankind is doing very little to stop this from happening. Efforts so far to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases have been ineffective and we are about to conduct a profound experiment–but in this case it won’t be in a laboratory, it will be in the environment we are dependent on for our survival.
