(Something to ponder)
This is a straightforward article explaining that life on earth will not be exterminated by climate change and anyone who says so is being alarmist.
It’s very tongue in cheek and you need to read between the lines…

For example, it briefly mentions that half the world’s population are living in areas that will be flooded, but it is also quick to reassure us that they’re not the wealthy ones so it won’t really have a great impact on our GDP.
It also mentions biodiversity (in passing) but brushes it off easily.
Interesting how a different perspective (and priority) can change the impact of the same facts – seems we’ve got another 1000 years before we have to worry about the last glacier!
