Sure it can, in principle.

But (massive) empirical evidence demonstrates that, by and large - the private sector won't do the right thing (or even "the common sense thing"), in this regard -- at least not at adequate scale -- unless it is very tightly regulated.

I have a long-range plan (similar to what's suggested by Jack Bogle), but this sounds like a good alternative for those that have room for climate protection in their investing scheme.

"The report also found that sea levels are at the highest ever recorded."

That one really confuses me. I know parts of the US were under water at some point-- surely they would have been higher then?

Some of the other claims seem a bit far, also.

Am I wrong?
