Abstract:
In the 1998 Jerry Bruckheimer blockbuster movie Armageddon humanity is faced with the most serious threat: an asteroid the size of Texas is on a collision course with the earth. The effects of such a collision would be nothing short of disastrous: the end of the world as we know it. In this situation people do the obvious: they turn to a hero (naturally: Bruce Willis) who eventually saves the planet. If one believes in the IPCC reports and listens to the speakers at the numerous climate summits in the past two decades humanity is facing an equally serious crisis: the dangers and risks of anthropogenic climate change
