Read out of context, that description fits climate change too, of course. Millions of us hopped planes, booked expensive AirBnBs, and made all sorts of detailed plans to be in exactly the place that scientists told them to be months ago. “ So why do so many ignore scientists’ predictions about climate change?!!”

Solar activity provides no alternative explanation for today’s climate change Dagsvik and Moen claim that recent research indicates that variations in the sun’s magnetic field are of great importance for long-term fluctuations in solar activity. Our job is to be thorough and verify questionable results. It has taken time.

We know we must now work to both cut greenhouse gas emissions to reduce the severity of climate change and at the same time work to adapt to the impacts we can no longer avoid. Gleick disagrees and defends the Malthusian notion that future food surpluses are highly uncertain due to climate change, and argues that I ignore such risks.
