this is what trouble's me the most - population keeps growing, and not only that take a look at the 2 Billion people of China and India who are both developing a carbon consuming middle class and I think we're focusing too much on prevention and not enough on adaptation as I wonder what we could morally do to curb population or prevent people from leaving states of poverty.

But that said, NPR had a nice piece on what Florida is doing to prepare for potential rises in sea level and flooding that may ensue
