For years, Sen. Whitehouse has warned
About climate change, ever so scorned
But now his perch is great
To spread his message straight
In alerting us all to the cost

You should think of Cyclone Gabrielle and its successors as the true "ute tax", paid by all of us in order to indulge the selfish prick component of our population.

So now a prediction.
Who's going to pay the #climateCosts for the business and elite-driven delay in addressing #climatechange ?
Why, these will be paid by those of us who are still poor enough to pay our taxes. And the costs will be inflated - several times over - because those same business interests, lobbyists and politicians will demand COMPENSATION for the loss of future profits that their thirty years of stalling and denying have allowed to flow in the past.

The consequences of climate change are NOT hitting us harder and earlier than we thought.

They are hitting us harder and earlier than industry lobbyists, right-wing politicians and media organisations, and others wanted us to believe.

The science has been there for more than a generation. But who's going to pay for the cost of business and elite-driven delay?

Everyone, *everyone*, arguing that working to mitigate the effects of climate change is too expensive for our economies is ACTUALLY objecting to the possibility that their primary source of income would have to change.
