What almost everyone seems to forget is the cost of trying to "cure" Climate Change. I heard a presentation on You Tube( I believe it was Lord Moncton, the former scientific advisor to Margaret Thatcher), who stated that to lower CO2 levels by even 15 points, a trillion dollars would have to be spent. He also stated that we might have to spend a quadrillion dollars or more(more than the GDP of the entire Earth) to attempt to "fix" it. As for me, I am not interested in repealing the Industrial Revolution.
