I agree with all of these statements with the possible exception of number 6. I think a strong case could be made that we have already gone well past the point where serious consequences are inevitable. In my view, mitigation is now vital to the very survival of high energy technology civilization.

I am a software engineer that has worked in the aerospace, telecomm, and gaming industries. My degree is in physics.

Good luck with grad school!
