In search of intelligence…among humans.
The news is full of extreme weather headlines – floods, wildfires, droughts, tornadoes – but the US still doesn't get climate change

Phi Beta Iota: This is a very fine contribution to the discussion but it commits the classic error of being afraid to call a spade a space. CORRUPTION is the reason why the USA is not serious about climate change (which is 10% of environmental degradation, threat #3 among the ten high-level threats to humanity). It is the LACK OF INTEGRITY among decision-makers, combined with (enabled by) a lack of public intelligence feeding public outrage such that very bad decisions can be made that profit the few at the expense of the many.
