What will it 'cost' before the world takes notice?


How “much” will it take to have people take notice of climate change?

The cost of dealing with global warming in terms of lives lost and injury, the replacement and repair of damage houses and other buildings and the replacement or repair of infrastructure nearly broke $200 billion in 2012.

However, that doesn’t appear to be enough as the climate change skeptics still strut around the world declaring all is well, and for them, and for the moment, it is.

The alarming mounting costs of climate change are discussed in Climateprogress story headed: “Global damage from extreme weather and other disasters set to break $200 billion a year”.
