What is the TRUE cost of climate change? Is stopping it early really the cheapest plan in the long run? 50 to 1 explores the costs of stopping climate change vs adapting to it as and if it’s required, and uncovers a simple truth; it’s 50 times more expensive to try and STOP climate change than it is to simply ADAPT to it as and if required.
Topher works out that Labor’s global warming policy would after 10 years cut the world’s temperature by 0.00005 degrees at a cost of $160 billion.
The global warming faith has robbed our politicians of all reason.

its a small cost to the dead and hungry, the flooded.. the burnt the displaced and the land itself.
look, if you flat earthers want to cook slowly in your own home and starve why not begin now so we can live ? that way everybody's happy.

LL, the figure is a load of codswallop but receives attention. This also is nonsense:
TH "Just stopping cutting down the old growth rain forest would have a bigger effect, but governments cant make money from that "
Felling trees is a carbon neutral process.
