> But it's not happening ... Perhaps not in the US, but other parts of the world is full speed on the renewables track

  I refer you once again to the emissions chart. It's nice that renewables are coming online but that curve is not bending downward.

    Oh, so let me try to follow your lead and lets imagine that it's not going to bend anytime soon... How about we start thinking in terms of big scale disaster preparation in stead of inventing pseudo solutions? In the past underground dwellings have been popular, I imagine these will be more resilient to heat... as for flooding, not so much... so how about we do some calculations on how to become less vulnerable to flooding, etc? Just saying... IMHO, it's very easy to jump the tech fetish bandwaggon but all the ingenious inventions likely may turn out to matter less than little when nature applies force...

      So, just assuming without any evidence that the proposal is a "pseudo solution"?
