141. Everyone will not survive the chaotic weather to come . . .
in fact, it's questionable as to whether our planet will survive -- !!!

OPEC knew full well that they were going to have to curtail or stop production of petroleum --- and more than ten years ago they were asking then for subsidies when that time arrived !!!

The oil industry nonetheless continued to respond by buying out government/legislators and propagandizing the public to deny GW --- which was successful up to the last three or four years.

Meanwhile, the planet is not indestructible --
About 15 years ago, we had a report in the NY Times pointing out that the dams and reservoirs that our Army Corps of Engineers built since the 1940's were "impacting the rotation of the earth."

No one can say how all of this will compound -- GW, pollution of air, seas, waterways --
and population reaching 7 billion!!!
