Era of global boiling sounds very reassuring. When are our policy makers going to actually start acting?

    I don't think we will see much in serious action until lots of people start to die and even then some will still drag their feet.

    I really hope this isn't the case but I have a feeling you might be right. Why don't we act preemptively instead of firefight (literally in this case) after the fact.
