The big American banks expect a 3°C warmer world. There is no mention of runaway effects, but one bank (Morgan Stanley) advises to invest in air conditioning stocks.
@gert And maybe not buy any real estate below 3 metres above sea level, or to which the road passes below that elevation.
Capitalists will profit from the widespread destruction and death caused by climate change, which is why they are happy to continue accelerating it. They have known their extractive behavior causes global warming for at least 50 years - it is just another tool they have been using for human exploitation, and they won't stop until everyone is dead. Don't let them be the last ones breathing.
@gert Just imagine the pressures the insurance industry will suffer? And they think Air conditioning is a strong buy?
