Just read the latest Arctic ice volume data. This is probably the most important news to date because it can be seen by the public, through NASA cameras (as opposed to CO2).
I think politicians should now decide to make Ireland an example to the world by :
Reducing milk and meat output
Huge subsidies for electric cars
Big feed-in tariffs for solar with no PP required to place them on land
Consider electricity storage measures through big batteries (Enercon has done one) or pumped storage until elec cars reach critical mass.
