Still doomed...

Hundreds of methane 'plumes' discovered This article was just a couple of days after my original post. It is pretty clear we have irreversibly passed into an era of positive feedbacks that will continue spiralling out of control at ever increasing rates. Where that takes us, we can only begin to imagine, though if we believe James Lovelock,it ain't gonna be pretty...

The question is, what are we going to do about it? Do we sit idly by and let whatever's going to happen engulf us all, or do we try and figure out where the safest place to live and using what means, is likely to be?

I'm thinking of emigrating to somewhere like New Zealand, but that will probably end up getting invaded by the Chinese or someone else when the shit really starts hitting the fan...
