In other words, doing nothing about Global warming could prove to be very, very expensive.

mr prince, we dont need to warm the world to make food & water more scarce. overpopulation is doing that regardless of climate.
as far as damaging storms, they been around for 4 billion years & they are not going away cause of a carbon tax. on a daily basis the sun has far greater impact on weather than humans can ever dream.
will new orleans no longer exist? maybe. but thats more of a darwin awards matter, AKA the stupidity of owning a home in an uninhabitable environment.
the only thing humans need to worry about are volcanos, asteroids, & solar storms. Should the ice caps totally melt, humans will be fine. i promise.
