Much has been said about Climate Change, and there are at least 1000 scientists who agree there are causes for concern for every scientist who is not concerned. Without being climatologists, we need to understand the threat to our way of life.
Most of us insure ourselves against a small threat of our home catching fire (it has happened to say fewer than 2% of us), and we are willing to pay an insurance premium of hundreds of dollars a year to be compensated in the event that it happens, since it will have a large impact on us.
Climate Change can have a much larger impact, with the loss of 30-70% of species (this includes loss of pollination and food species, leading to huge food issues) and species for medicines, taking a toll on the poor and more vulnerable.
