*I wonder what actually happens when and if it
turns out that irreversible climate change has
doomed world civilization. Do people go sit
outside the President's ranch and mournfully demand
some answers, is that it? The current President

is President when that reckoning dawns may
not even have a ranch.

Molten, Taffy-Like Siberia to Turn Planet into Methane-Oozing Death Swamp
*I mean, really. Suppose you were 20 years older
and the planet really was a methane-oozing death
swamp. Presumably about nine-tenths of the
world population would be dead by then, but let's assume

eating regularly. What the heck do you do
with yourself? Worry about your plummeting
real-estate values, maybe?
