Your ranting about that the IPCC are climate deniers because they say that temperatures do not increase, that no catastrophic weather is to be expected even if they did, that it would cost much more to reduce CO2 emissions than to adapt to climate changes if any were to occur, is just boring. You’re on the loosing side. Scientists and even politicians are turning their back on that 1990s myth about climate change. Two decades without any warming has made everyone except the most fanatic religous-political reality deniers give up.
