More than 40 million under threat for severe storms that could whip up tornadoes, hail and damaging winds – especially in the South

Will these yokels ever learn to stop voting against their own interests?

In the late 1970s, scientists at Exxon fitted one of the company’s supertankers with state-of-the-art equipment to measure carbon dioxide in the ocean and in the air, an early example of substantial research the oil giant conducted into the science of climate change.

A new study published Thursday in the journal Science found that over the next decades, Exxon’s scientists made remarkably accurate projections of just how much burning fossil fuels would warm the planet. Their projections were as accurate, and sometimes even more so, as those of independent academic and government models.

Yet for years, the oil giant publicly cast doubt on climate science, and cautioned against any drastic move away from burning fossil fuels, the main driver of climate change. Exxon also ran a public relations program — including ads that ran in The New York Times — emphasizing uncertainties in the scientific research on global warming.

Based on the Tobacco example, we should be able to sue them for trillions.

Greenland ice sheet — the second largest in the world — experiencing its highest temperatures in 1,000 years, researchers say
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/greenla...in-1000-years/

Pretty clear evidence of global warming, but our village idiot is still in denial, sadly.

One needs to if not already then soon, begin to wonder when the back to back weather events. Will become to frequent, severe and expensive to recover from?

Getting close now it seems. We already have mass migrations due to climate changes at the Equator effecting Middle East, Africa and Asia Central America ect... populations.

Just where is the funds coming from to pay for all the devastation?

It is almost now an every day occurrence of millions if not billions in damages. It will be a tipping point once reached that will facilitate the suspension of rebuilding rather abandoning.
