Am I the only one who thinks young Greta could do with a good worming?
What are YOU doing to mitigate against Climate Change?

I cannot work out which is the right way .do I take steps to reduce my carbon footprint and cut down on food production or do i if at all possible produce food to be available to the folks who will die if not fed next year albeit possibly but not measurably breathing in a tad les c02

Rejoicing whenever I notice a young, thinking, healthy, couple contentedly eating their steak pasties for their supper whilst enjoying the sunset.

I'm not sure any of it will make much difference, totally changing how we do things could cause problems of its own. On the other hand if everyone did a little bit, it might make a difference.
The problem is there's so much misinformation and lots of people are trying to make money out of the green religion, whilst not actually doing anything to help, its all smoke and mirrors.
I'm not a big fan of the "I'll do something when the planes are grounded" argument, its as pathetic as the, eat less meat and save the planet line, spouted by most of the media.

Given that warming has been happening for a while can someone tell me where the sea levels have risen so far?

More people dying in cities when it gets hot. That’s an effect.

I think the same as you. Live your life however you want to.
The next generation will innovate and adapt.

Bit of a problem with the forecast of sea levels rising.
I think it's about a 10 millmetres per year. I did calculate it out once since the height of the last Ice Age it's been about the same amount for 25,000 years (Estimated values).
Sea levels were 250 metres lower when Ice was 1km thick over both hemispheres.
250 metres rise over 25,000 years is 10mm a year.
NASA currently say the trend is about 3.3mm a year.

I am pretty sure the powers that be are most concerned about the planet, after all people dying of famine helps the situation.

The speed of rise will slow... it only melts once and as the area of ice shrinks the rate slow.Bit of a problem with the forecast of sea levels rising.

Don't worry, there's plenty of time left to give away all your assets and live in a cave.
Good luck.
Oh, you might want to chose a cave well away from the sea so you can have a good nights rest and not be worrying about drowning.

The problem is we're now forced to compare businesses in the same industry with each other. So you may have a dairy, permanently housing cows, growing different crops, importing feed and burning fuel hauling feed one way and slurry the other. That may not look great compared to a herd fed on all grazed grass with no concrete and little fuel burnt, but the intensive dairy might only have to keep half as many cows for the same amount of milk, reducing emissions there.
Soon gets complicated and when each business is competing for a good sales price, they're going to try and push their way over their competitor.
You only have to look at organic for evidence of that.
