Even runaway climate change of 6 to 8°C reduces GDP by by 2100! less than 10%

US has county level estimates but @jamespeshaw can’t estimate cost of global warming for NZ! @mfe_news says it is too hard!!

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
