What Casey Handmer actually said

  1. Casey Handmer Physicist, formerly at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory
    the meta problem here is if we don't move our industrial stack off fossil fuels in 10 or 20 years, first of all, we'll get poor the same way you UK did, right? Because they ran out of coal basically. And the second thing is we'll get poor because we'll flood our coastal cities in Florida underneath climate change.
