@f14g2000cwb.googlegroups.com:
There is an implicit assumption (not yet justified) that climate change
(especially 'global warming') is necessarily bad.

Since we've adapted our civilization to the current climate any change will
be bad. Are todays sea levels optimum? Perhaps not, but moving all port
cities if it changes is going to be horribly expensive. What about flood
plains located just about sea level. What will people who live there do if
sea levels rise?
