John Doerr on the market opportunity for global warming

I spent some weekend time researching green energy opportunities to invest the money from the sale of my house.

Glad to see uber-VC John Doerr talking about the threats and opportunities

A warming planet, through climate change, is another threat. Doerr, who was joined onstage by his partner John Denniston, displayed slides, including pictures of the entire Bay Area sitting under water -- to show what would happen if global warming melts away Greenland's ice sheet. The ice sheet's melting is well under way, and its demise would lead to a 20-foot rise in ocean levels, he said.

I hope we take action before New York and London go where New Orleans went.
