Climate change flood warning

Dire warnings from Energy Secretary Steven Chu that some islands in the Caribbean will disappear and that Louisiana and even northern California could be overrun with rising water as a result of global warming.

Conservative commentators and so-called experts will no doubt attack Chu for being alarmist but others are more likely to be receptive. A European Union white paper has warned of more extreme weather events including regular flooding and one of Australia's top scientists has warned that the world has only six years to act to avoid the damaging impact of the climate catastrophe. With the world still debating and no agreement on the best strategy, time is running out.
