Commenting on “Climate change is now critical, says the Climate Commission”

Each year 4 quintillion Joules (4 x 10 to the power of 18 Joules) of solar energy reaches the Earth, but only 300 trillion Joules (3 x 10 to the power 14 Joules) are consumed by the world's population. There is plenty of energy left to warm the Earth. No wonder "the atmosphere is warming, the ocean is warming, ice is being lost from glaciers and ice caps, and sea levels are rising."
