Via the Telegraph:
The scientist and inventor James Lovelock claims we should stop trying to save the planet from global warming and instead retreat to climate controlled cities
Saving the planet from climate change is โbeyond our abilityโ and we should stop wasting time trying to tackle global warming, a leading scientist has claimed
James Lovelock, who first detected CFCs in the atmosphere and proposed the Gaia hypotheses, claims society should retreat to โclimate-controlled citiesโ and give up on large expanses of land which will become inhabitable.
Lovelock, who has just published his latest book A Rough Ride To The Future, claims we should be โstrengthening our defences and making a sustainable retreat.โ
โWeโre reaching an age in history where you can no longer predict the future with any hope of success.
โWe should give up vainglorious attempts to save the world.
โBritain is no longer a world power and we need to leave such schemes to the USA, Japan or China. We should spend out efforts adapting Britain to fight climate change.โ
