Nothing, just more taxes - bit of luck that climate change is nothing to do with human activity.

As I believe Global Warming is caused by the under-activity of the Sun, IMO, there's nothing we can do to prevent it.
We perhaps may be able to slow it down by a few days, weeks or months, by limiting our carbon footprint, but I think we'll be fighting a losing battle.

Politicians are producing a lot of hot air hoping it helps to dry up flooded areas.

All that happens is that more and more people start talking about it while it happens around them untill its all over then thats when they will decide to do something about it. but then when they do there is no need so they wait for the next time for it happens then they talk about it some more.

We can't do anything to change the relative close orbit of the Earth to the Sun, nor the inclination of the Earth in its orbit, nor the current activity level of the Sun.

Maybe we could load a rocket with all this rain we've been having and fire it at the Sun?
