Does any of this even matter when the US congress has a strong contingent so stupid they not only don;t think the climate is changing, they propose to default on T-bills to make a political point?
I may be naive, but I think it matters a lot. Some people are responsible to providing tools. They must fulfill their responsibilities even if it seems clear that others will abdicate their responsibility to use the tools. The intended users must be forced to make that choice over and over. When so much is riding on something, giving up based on expectations would be immoral. Ah, it's nice to be naive.
