He's totally right. Can you please share the link, so I can post this on my lj? I posted something about global warming a few weeks ago, so it would mean a lot to me if I could embed (I think that's the word)this directly in my lj :) thanks for sharing.
I guess it comes down to whether people accept/believe that there is any risk at all. You could make the same graph debating true/false on alien attacks, or global pandemics, or terrorism.
People have to accept there is a real risk of anything happening before they commit themselves to changing anything, let alone spending money, or, more importantly big corporations not making as much money.
Anyway, as it happens I agree with him - but since when have reasonable arguments worked on the kinds of people who don't believe in global climate change?
