Thomas Schelling on Global Warming

An Interview With Thomas Schelling, Part Two

"It's a tough sell. And probably you have to find ways to exaggerate the threat. "

"I sometimes wish that we could have, over the next five or ten years, a lot of horrid things happening -- you know, like tornadoes in the Midwest and so forth -- that would get people very concerned about climate change. But I don't think that's going to happen."


"Schelling has been involved in the global warming debate since chairing a commission for President Carter in 1980." -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Schelling
