“The models that have been constructed agree that when, as has been predicted, the level of carbon dioxide or its equivalent in other greenhouse gases doubles from pre-Industrial Revolution concentrations, the global average temperature will increase, and that the increase will be 1.5 to 4.5 degrees Celsius or 3 to 8 degrees Fahrenheit...

And the only thing I disagree with is, I don't think Donald Trump is that. Trump is blow it up for no good reason at all.

“France is ready for a European revolution and it is Germany that is pulling the brakes. For a long time, it was the other way around.

Everything will move faster, and competitive advantage disappear more quickly than ever.” PeopleMovingRevolutionAgreeStrategyDisappear Author:Walter Kiechel
