Climate Change: How to Invest for the Possibility

I recognize that there are trained scientists on both sides of the argument. My point is that the mere fact that celebrities with no scientific credentials endorse a particular position is not a reason to dismiss that position.

I'd be interested to know what data you would regard as convincing evidence that global warming is real.

Climate Change: How to Invest for the Possibility

My understanding is that there a number of people who have concluded that global warming is a real possibility have scientific credentials that are considerably more substantial than those of Penelope Cruz, Tim Robbins, and Harry Hamlin (or Rush Limbaugh).
