QUOTE ... it is entirely possible that unless something is done to rein in greenhouse gas emissions, the planet could experience that magnitude of warming in a century or two. UNQUOTE Now, I believe to have shown that even if GW has been TRIGGERED by human actions, it cannot be untriggered by their reversal. 2.While he gives most instructive details about catastrophic sequels of the GW, he restricts them to fauna and flora. Now, I love animals, am active in their protection and helped defending Peta in a trial impending its bankruptcy. Yet, I value people over animals and miss in Barnosky's views references to deadly dangers of GW sequels for hundreds of millions of people. Let me quote bottom lines of my GW essay: QUOTE You may trigger an avalanche by pulling the trigger of your gun, but you won't stop it by pushing back the trigger. Which actions seem advisable in this light? 1.Dissociate GW from Pollution, a distinct, equally critical problem, which should be investigated in its own context, unaffected by political divagations about the GW. 2.Admit that GW is inevitable and start immediately to plan actions aiming at saving millions endangered by inundations, (expatriation, artificial islands, etc.) and other sequels of the GW.
