Only a decent point if you don't care about Amsterdam. I would very much appreciate if Amsterdam wasn't under water in 100 years.

- jhugo 4y agoIt's already below sea level and only mildly damp, I don't imagine it will be under water in 100 years. The point is about human adaptation and ability to find technological solutions, not about whether you care about the specific cities.
- armada651 4y agoWhy rely on human ingenuity in 100 years to cope with the effects, when we can use the same inginuity right now to prevent it?
- jhugo 4y agoBecause maybe we can't! Many scientists think we are already too late to stop fairly major climate change. So the sane solution is surely to do both. Nothing that the guy was quoted saying in OP says that we shouldn't do anything proactive about climate change.
