An interesting dynamic, but it would be misleading to extrapolate to other areas in which global warming is having a profound effect. Nature has a finite ability to heal, and those in decision making positions are very capable of stifling action if personal interests are at stake

And I thought you would make rational moderate predictions as a scientist on the impact your book will have yourself. "False Alarm will convince you that everything you think about climate change is wrong". False prophet or marketing slogan for the $$$?

Climate change is a real challenge and we should fix it. But smartly
