“The gap between public perception and scientific reality is now enormous. While some of the public is just becoming aware of the existence of global warming, the relevant scientists - those who know what they are talking about - realize that the climate system is on the verge of tipping points.

		<description><![CDATA[We do not live in a totalitarian society - the public potentially has enormous power to interfere.
