...not to mention the polar regions, the climate is doing strange stuff and breaking all records for temperature and precipitation - entirely as predicted by climatologists studying global warming.
Yet, as they go to work in the unusually wet and humid tropical conditions of the UK, the usual useful idiots will deny the evidence of their eyes.

The Epic of Atrahasis provides additional information on the flood and flood hero that is omitted in Gilgamesh XI and other versions of the Ancient Near East flood myth. According to Atrahasis III ii, lines 40–47 the flood hero was at a banquet when the storm and flood began: "He invited his people ... to a banquet ... He sent his family on board. They ate and they drank. But he (Atrahasis) was in and out. He could not sit, could not crouch, for his heart was broken and he was vomiting gall

Climate change was probably responsible for the destruction of many an empire. Egyptian, Mayan, Greek, etc. Even without man made input, change happens.

It probably will happen, the pro arguments are more convincing than the anti and, despite all the smears (why do people get so worked up over science?) the latter are more likely to be exagerrated or erroneous.

The only reason not to worry about it is that there is not a snowball's chance in hell of any coordinated action that will prevent it anyway. What is the point of us holding off on building coal fired stations when the Chinese keep building far more of them? If we damage our industry with power shortages or high electricity costs we will have to get more goods manufactured in less fuel efficient plants abroad, then shipped across the world adding transport fuel emissions. How will that help?
