Quote from "Mass Dieback" Viridian Note:

"The real danger we face is that gradual warming of the sort we are experiencing now will trigger a sudden cooling that could drop average global temperatures by 5C (9F) in ten years.

"The sudden cooling and the accompanying droughts would destroy most of the agriculture that now sustains six billion of us, and at least 90 percent of the human race would be killed by famine and war in a matter of a decade or so."

I meant, mainly, the people of Viridian, Mr. Bruce Sterling, etc., were taking this seriously. He has forwarded Gwynne Dyer's article, not seeming to disagree with it, and it claims 90% loss of human life over next 20 years or so. Hence the Viridian Notes so cleverly named, "Mass Dieback."

I don't mean doing anything to prevent it, which by all indications seems to be impossible, even for governments, but do something to prepare for it. To become one of the 10% and not one of the 90%.
