If the ice in Greenland and Antartica was as valuable as the damage losing it would cost - how valuable would that ice be?

If the ice in Greenland and Antartica was as valuable as the damage losing it would cost - how valuable would that ice be?
The 20 cities listed in "Future flood losses in major coastal cities" published by NATURE CLIMATE CHANGE - put the cost at $1 Trillion per year.
So - any ideas on how I can short these cities? 
Credit default swaps on global warming bonds?
Wall Street - can you figure out how to make billions saving the planet from carbon?
Be quick about it - Manhattan is almost under water...

triple paned glass windows or cold fusion

numbers dont lie by vaclav smil why understanding how humans hunt is essential to understanding why millions continues to be spent on cold fusion projects instead of triple paned windows. why not start with what is proven? windows. smil explains that triple glazed windows can create savings of 90% - no other opportunities for billions of units. cost 15% more. why isnt this done? because it doesnt hunt. no hunter is going to acquire large solar surplus from the being the "johnny appleseed of triple glazed windows" in the same way the way that hunters can create surplus gains from investing the chance at discovering and controlling cold fusion. why are large surpluses found at the frontier - fusion vs windows? the chance at property rights. there are no 10x or 10,000x multiples for investors in triple glazing. all the benefits from paying to replace acrue to the homeowner. the key is to find the right investor. utilities will offer rebates to install energy efficiencies. since ...

Studying how humans hunt is crucial

 Studying how humans hunt is crucial as resource limits are reached and boundaries are crossed. How humans hunt as a field of study has been overlooked in favour of history, political science, geography, anthropology or economics for studying conflict. They are unable to predict or model outcomes that are outside of their field of study. Studying the unique ways humans has been completely missing from existing disciplines. 1. what are the ways that humans hunt that are shared with animals? 1. what are ways do human human that are unique to humans? 1. with agriculture what species controls the largest share of gains? 1. what species is best target for hunting? 1. what special hunting techniques have developped unique to that species? 1. how does hunting lead to rise and fail of civilizations? Studying the way humans hunt has been missing for the religious narrative traditions. For thousands of years gods and prophets have spoken and taught and yet we have gone from city collapse to ...
