Is a BILLION $$$ enough to qualify as "putting your money where your mouth is"? :eusa_whistle:

Monsanto Pays $1 Billion For Big Data Company That Monitors Climate Change - Yahoo Finance
The conclusions that came back were, 'There's definitely something there. This isn't an anomaly. There's enough evidence to suggest that it's getting warmer.' For agriculture that's going to absolutely present challenges, at the very time we need to produce more, it's an environment that's heated. In the much longer term, we're going to have to focus on breeding to accommodate those temperature shifts.

If a calculating, bloodless & soulless corporation is willing to make this wager, what does that say deniers?

That is the correct motorcycle.
 
Monsanto knows the changing climate for farmers is a threat to the ability to grow crops and raise stock for food production.
In Texas less cattle now graze due to lack of moisture over the last decade alone.
Farmers up north are growing corn where corn was unable to grow due to short cool summers. Something is happening.
The rain belt or green belt is moving northward as is the temperature.
No matter who you believe or what you think should be done, the cost of food will rise because there are more people inhabiting the planet and the numbers are increasing fast. Farmers are becoming fewer in numbers due to the urbanization of farmlands and a lack of people interested in farming.
So you people can fight all you want, but you can't stop the change in climate. The Earth does as it wants.
