If you think China and India aren’t aware of the chaos — both political and humanitarian — that rising sea levels would have in their countries, you are kidding yourself. They have a lot more people living near sea level than we do.
I’m curious — if a giant meteor was on a path to Earth and the governments of the world said they had to tax each family to develop and deploy a device to destroy the meteor and save the planet, how much would you and your family be willing to pay?
Yes, it is an extreme analogy, and no, I’m not comparing climate change to a meteor. I’m just trying to figure out what price we would put on saving the only place in the universe that we are able to exist.
