What’s Really Scary

I don’t write very often about climate change, basically because I doubt that we can get action until the immediate economic crisis is resolved. But I may be part of the problem, because this issue is all too likely to trump, well, everything — yet those who know this have been reluctant to say it for fear of seeming, well, shrill.
Joe Romm has a great post with a great illustrative figure (is it his own? He doesn’t say):

All too true, from everything I’ve read. And horrifying."

"Note:  Michael Tobis (and Stephen Ban) gave us the top figure. It is probably time to update that chart, since our inaction has shifted “most informed opinion” to overlap almost exactly with “Considered Unreasonable: Not reported.”"
