Taking the debate out of global warming

Have a look. If you find flaws in his argument, I want to hear about them, too.

Not that I disagree; I think we should be pushing like crazy for everyone to take action NOW. However, the guy asked for criticism, so here it is: This is essentially Pascal's Gambit with a hint of Bayesian probability. It's only meaningful in its own contextual belief system and it requires everyone in the world to accept an identical weltanschauung.

Your assessment is too depressing, Frank. I have to believe that even Republicans and corporations will see sense eventually - as in, before it's too late - because otherwise, it's already too late and I might as well stop working, stop voting, stop doing anything but play tourist with my family in this vanishing world.

Ah, but if you watch his video correcting for Pascal's Gambit you may be swayed.
