It seems from the little I have read that there is a certain arrogance on the part of humans that comes from a belief the place was made for us. Unfortunately our “spiritual” book leaves those words “and man shall have dominion over the world and the animals” ringing in my ears and I suspect that even the non believers accept that part of the book. We have been here for a relatively short time..the spider for example has done it his way for over 20 million years just to name one creature that has more experience on the planet than humans. What is it about humans when confronted with rising sea levels they seek to build walls to hold out the sea rather than simply move to higher ground. One can only assume the words above give them the confidence and belief that they can manage this feat. There is an industry I call “the sky is falling corporation” that comes up with newer threats to our being but I suspect the only folk they really seek to help is themselves..to the profits of scare campaigns. That is the real problem with GW it is difficult to work out fact and fiction because so many vested interests support the data gathered when it suits their drive. The posts in this thread have been excellent and the wisdom of those contributing is a joy to behold.
