We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.

Why the climate debate is NOT sexy to me:
---Case in point:
"Eleven of the last 12 years rank among the 12 warmest years in the instrumental record of global surface temperature".
report published by the official Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
"However, about 70 percent of this warming occurred before 1940, before big industries and automobile sales. That pre-1940 warming was almost certainly due to the natural, solar-linked 1,500-year cycle researchers have found recently in ice cores, seabed sediments, and fossil pollen."

sigh.
"...As a result, of the pollution, the world's oceans are probably now more acidic that they have ever been in "hundreds of millennia", and that even if emissions stopped now, the waters would take "tens of thousands of years to return to normal".
A report by the Royal Society, Britain's premier scientific body
"Meanwhile, the climate-forcing impact of atmospheric CO2 has been declining rapidly. The laws of physics tell us the first 40 parts per million of human-added CO2, back in the 1940s, had more climate-forcing power than the next 360 ppm. Today's radically weakened CO2 effect..."

But but but...
"It concludes that emissions of carbon dioxide - the main cause of
global warming - have already increased the acidity of ocean surface
water by 30 per cent, and threaten to treble it by the end of the
century."
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which last month
shared the Nobel Peace Prize with former US vice president Al Gore.
...and on and on...grrrr.
