I guess the headline:
"Climate change will reach point of no return in 20 years, says expert"
was originally "Climate change will reach point of no return in 20
years, says expert in the completely unrelated field of sustainable
energy". But of course these things always get edited down :-)

Most assuredly. Of course, there will also be plenty of "we're all
doomed", "better get used to it" and "Rarely is the questioned asked, is
our children learning?"
Oops. I meant "The fundamental debate: is it manmade or natural?"
Of course, not all of the above will appear in the peer-reviewed
literature - I hope :-)
