Geo-Engineering to Save the Planet??

Er...no, it won't work! A study of possible Geo-engineering projects has shown that they will not stop the projected rise in the world's oceans! Anyone who has read my mutterings on this subject will know that I'm not surprised by this news! The best hope for humanity is to plan for survival. Move away from the vulnerable coastal areas, grow more food in less space...errr...that's about it! I would suggest that we need to reduce the population, but that's never going to happen by consent. Humans are smarter than the dinosaurs, so we should be able to plan our way out of this natural change in the world's climate!

  1. Who set sail from Plymouth on board HMS Endeavour today in 1768?
