The Rising Influence of Rising Affluence

[OakesCS]

I'm sure that 2.5M includes people with wood burning fireplaces, stoves, and furnaces and I'd bet the majority is the former and that those fireplaces are more for ambiance than for primary heating. Since that population tends to be composed of affluent, 'educated' folks that correspond to the largest fraction of climate change worriers I find that intersection of humans to be a particularly wonderful group of hypocrites.
