Climate Change: 'Adapt or bust'

If one is to read between the lines, the insurance industry won't be so quick to insure flood-prone, or low-lying areas, as they have in the past, for starters.

1. the insurance industry doesn't offer flood insurance to begin with

national flood insurance program is a national program, it is not offered by the insurance industry

next question?

2. one thing this article makes clear is . . .

whether humankind is largely responsible for climate change or not, it IS in fact happening -- and right now . . . and even the strongest emmission controls possible won't change that fact . . .

yes, we still have to go after the polluters and eventually stop them . . . meanwhile, "Adapt or Bust" are damn good words to live by . . .
