If I were a political cartoonist, I would create a scene showing Uncle Sam with his head in his hands looking down at a sheet on his lap showing “2060 Climate Change Crisis,” and Donald Trump in a hazy background under a 2019 sign reading “I don’t believe it!” In large letters underneath would be the phrase “What were we thinking?"
Take out all the partisan bickering on important current issues and there remains looming, apart from nuclear holocaust, the most serious threat to our planet in the history of mankind. Recently released reports by the International Panel on Climate Change and others reveal that the situation is even more dire than previously predicted.
