Lynnm | 923 comments McKibben's article in Rolling Stone, "Global Warming's Terrifying New Math," one of the the magazine's most shared articles recently.

Most of us who follow environmental issues already know much of what is in the article. But, it still is a very important article because it is getting the information out to the masses.

Any thoughts, comments on the article?

"Terrifying" is the correct word.

Every new study from science shows that it is worse than expected.

It is frightening. But it's a non-issue for most people. As I've said before, I think that's because people don't want to change their life styles. They think that it is a future event, something for future generations to deal with.

I think you are spot on Lynnm - people just don't want to think about it, because if they did think about it, they'd realise that we can't carry on as we are, and that's not something most folks want to consider :-(
