Would have been nice if Alaska recognized climate change decades ago.

Economic insecurity makes people shortsighted, especially when O&G was exerting enormous political and scientific influence to deny climate science.

Oil and gas still provide 1/3 of all jobs in Alaska. What is striking is how much climate change has contributed to the economy of Alaska.

1/3 of all jobs in Alaska are provided by the oil and gas sector. How much climate change do you think is needed to balance the cumulative benefits of oil extraction in the last 50 years?

You make it seem as if the cumulative benefits would disappear if we stopped producing greenhouse gases. A better question would be to ask how much climate change would balance out any additional benefits we receive from continuing our current path as opposed to investing a sufficient amount of money into the transformation to a more sustainable energy economy.
