An interesting article that discusses the increased impact of extreme weather on human populations in the wrong places. It looks pretty so we want to build our home there. But, humans often forget that Ma Nature isn't designed to accommodate human wishes. Waves grow too hight homes get flooded. A drought makes everything tinder dry and fires break out destroying human habitations. Let's just go ahead and bypass all the stuff about man-made climate change in the article and get down to the part of the destruction coming because humans have made far too many bad choices.

Yah hurricanes are on the rise...well maybe not http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...700-and-1800s/2011/12/28/gIQA2MdbQP_blog.html well there is always that California drought, never had those before...oh wait http://www.mercurynews.com/science/ci_24993601/california-drought-past-dry-periods-have-lasted-more Well there always those pesky blizzards to claim...surely they are unprecedented..... you mean they are not http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...700-and-1800s/2011/12/28/gIQA2MdbQP_blog.html lets see it was global warming...then climate change...now it's extreme weather....the marketing and lobbying sites sure are flexible. The sun rises due to the devastating rise of CO2 from 3 molecules of CO2 per 10,000 to 4 in every 10,000 works for Gruberites I suppose
Is this another of the 100+ failed predictions? I think if they throw enough out, they may get one right then they can crow they were right all along. LOL
2014: Ethnic groups white 92%, Asian 7%, aboriginal and other 1% http://www.indexmundi.com/australia/demographics_profile.html
I guess it depends on how you classify "white" because Australia itself does not count "white" versus "other"
