Why are they wrong?
- ianai 7y agoThe Uninhabitable Earth By David Wallace-Wells is my source for this. He’s got scientific references for what I wrote.
- makomk 7y agoOh. That explains it. Apparently his writing has been publicly criticized by such well-known climate change deniers as Michael Mann for being doom-mongering that misrepresents the science.
- ianai 7y agoDon’t throw the baby out with the bath water just because you think you’re comfortable with the relative possibilities.
- rayiner 7y agoAt least in part because that’s not what the IPCC is projecting. It’s telling that nobody ever references the work of the IPCC on expected economic impacts of climate change. https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2018/02/WGIIAR5-Chap10_FINAL.pdf https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2018/02/WGIIAR5-Chap... > For most economic sectors, the impact of climate change will be small relative to the impacts of other drivers (medium evidence, high agreement). Changes in population, age, income, technology, relative prices, lifestyle, regulation, governance, and many other aspects of socioeconomic development will have an impact on the supply and demand of economic goods and services that is large relative to the impact of climate change.
- polotics 7y agoThat is bullshit from our dear Nordhaus, Nobel Price in now fully discredited Economics. More debunking here: https://youtu.be/vwwvZ8g5eHE https://youtu.be/vwwvZ8g5eHE
- ianai 7y agoThank you for posting that. Something sure seemed off between what I’ve heard as reasonable models of climate changes nonlinear reality versus the theories expanded here.
