That's quite a nice list of benefits from fighting global warming:

1  energy independence
2  preserve rainforests
3  sustainability
4  green jobs
5  liviable cities  (they're not quite livable, today, it seems)
6  renewables
7  clean water, air
8  healthy children, etc., etc.

Yes, what if it's a big hoax and we create a better
world FOR NOTHING. "For nothing"??

Well, not exactly for nothing. One thing really ought
to be added to that list:

9  economic collapse
