What's another Billion among friends?

Of course climate change is happening, but are we humans really capable of overpowering the complexity of our planet's ecosystem or that big yellow thing in our sky(which isn't too bright today given that it is overcast here in CO)? 
At least we have experts like President Obama's advisor Mr. John Holdren providing us invaluable gems like this in this money grab for global warming.
"Weather practically everywhere is being caused by climate change," Holdren said.  With scientific logic like that let's not stop at one billion, let's borrow or print a couple billion more.
Thanks to Wikipedia we can see the type of expertise that we are using to support our $1B bet.  "Holdren was involved in the famous Simon–Ehrlich wager in 1980. He, along with two other scientists helped Paul R. Ehrlich establish the bet with Julian Simon, in which they bet that the price of five key metals would be higher in 1990. The bet was centered around a disagreement concerning the future scarcity of resources in an increasingly polluted and heavily populated world. Ehrlich and Holdren lost the bet, when the price of metals had decreased by 1990.^"
If precious metals is not your ball of wax, how about a little dabble into population predictions.  Again, thanks to Wikipedia we see that  "overpopulation was an early concern and interest. In a 1969 article, Holdren and co-author Paul R. Ehrlich argued, "if the population control measures are not initiated immediately, and effectively, all the technology man can bring to bear will not fend off the misery to come." In 1973, Holdren encouraged a decline in fertility to well below replacement in the United States, because "210 million now is too many and 280 million in 2040 is likely to be much too many." In 1977, Paul R. Ehrlich, Anne H. Ehrlich, and Holdren co-authored the textbook Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment; they discussed the possible role of a wide variety of means to address overpopulation, from voluntary family planning to enforced population controls, including compulsory abortion, adding sterilants to drinking water or staple foods, forced sterilization for women after they gave birth to a designated number of children, and discussed "the use of milder methods of influencing family size preferences" such as access to birth control and abortion."
That $1B bet isn't looking very good anymore based on the track record this mastermind has put together. I'd say we were better off not using our children's money on any hunches this guy is backing.
