Thus, the TC became the very driver of Technocracy, Sustainable Development, Green Economy, etc. that is being spread globally by the United Nations. It is no surprise then, that advocates of globalization would complain that climate change  will hurt globalization

Within a century of Henry Ford's first assembly line, the entire world economy has become a single, virtual conveyor belt. And that belt is getting hot.

When weather catastrophes hit, the big-ticket damages tend to come not from heat waves but from floods, hurricanes, and wildfires.
