What would it take for world leaders (and us) to take this seriously ? This is the biggest threat to our future security and prosperity, not ISIS, the EU, migrants etc.
Politicians just look ahead to the next elections, and we continue to vote them in. They'll have a token summit now and again, to which they'll all fly , to set targets which they have no intention of meeting. 'Flooding' - yes, we'll have to do something - soon all forgotten about.
The worry is that it is too late already, this is going to spiral out of control whatever we do, and we'll end up like our sister planet Venus (which is rather hot).
Anyway, have a nice warm day and maybe leave one of your cars at home...

Just been listening to a programme on Radio 4. Apparently, since you wrote this it's been said by experts on the subject that we now only have 13 years left to reduce global warming or the effects will be irreversible
