Global Climate Change and Heightened Incidence of Extreme Weather Events Mean More Disasters

One of our Facebook fans, Elaine Carter, writes precisely two words: “Absolutely relevant” about LifeCube, a business that we support.  It’s hard to disagree with you, Elaine.  Here’s cutting-edge R&D of on-demand emergency shelter for disaster response. In less than five minutes after arriving on the scene, a two-man first-responder team can assemble a sturdy, solid-floored space with food, water, medical supplies, communications, electricity and propane in which they can treat the wounded and conduct their operations.

I applaud Elaine’s brevity, and I think the attribute “absolutely relevant” is quite apt here. I know there is some level of controversy about global climate change and the heightened incidence of extreme weather events, at least here in the U.S. But is anyone projecting fewer disasters in the future? I’m having trouble finding them, if they exist.
