RE: Can we recover from human caused climate change?

I used to run a discussion forum on this very subject and interest waned once we realised that however we looked at it, we're fucked. Everything is interconnected and everything is increasing / depleting exponentially. The problem is that humans generally do not appreciate what exponential growth is like in advance. This is a good analogy

The only way out is if we get fusion to work (unlikely) or asteroid mining.

I really recommend these books on the subject:

(sorry .co.uk versions, should be available on amazon.com)
