in Scientific American, before about 1995 required almost all the
articles were written by PHds in the field, and it showed, you were
reading the best and most advanced. That is gone now.

A journalist usally reports on a field he knows little about, and it
shows, this guy has weather confused with climate change.

there is a field of science in insurance that relates risks to
preimiums, Actuaries,

sample of Lloyds of London  (the experts)

https://www.lloyds.com/news-and-risk-insight/risk-reports/library

they determine statistical frequency of events, and/or poisson
distributions, etc using real data (very interesting stuff actually)

if actuary gets it wrong, there goes your pension plan, business go
bankrupt, etc...


but none of this is hardly related to Climate Change, which is a long
term effect of 0.1 C per decades. It is a very long term average.

Love to see Lloyds put out a study on climate change, its effects would
be down in the noise.

Bitcoin has a far worse impact, due to energy usage alone. cost is about
$1,200 in electricity per bitcoin (depends on cost of electricity)
