2015-06-05 12:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: When Germany last hosted a summit of the world`s leading industrialized democracies, Chancellor Angela Merkel was a relative newcomer on the world stage.

Unless they have already crashed because Miami gets hit by its equivalent of Superstorm Sandy. Or because the smart money pulls out of coastal real estate ahead of time after realizing that our climate inaction has made the crash inevitable - due to a combination of faster-than-expected sea level rise and ever-worsening storm surges. The main prop...
