#2Mods, can you decapitalize the title please? The original article doesn't capitalize it (although see below for details).

Quickest and most reliable way to contact the mods is via the contact link in the footer. While they do see a lot, they don't see everything. They're very responsive in my experience. They fixed a title for me just today.

Although it probably shouldn't be capitalized here, the article title definitely appears in an all-caps style on my browser (the html doesn't, which is possibly what you mean, but I'd probably argue that in any normal conflict the actual content-title would win)

Ah, the title shown in the browser header is not all caps, but the font shown in the article is "all caps".
However, if you copy/paste the text somewhere else, you'll see it's just a font face rather than actual capital letters.
Regardless, it's poor taste.

#7Doing something about global warming (a-hem climate change) always boils down to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, people at the bottom who are struggling for housing, food, safety, etc are not concerned with coal power station emissions (as an example.) So we get short term goals from politicians that are just scary in how short sighted they are.

The capitalization helps with the alarmism.

I dug into this a bit as my curiosity was piqued. The actual HTML h1 element is title case, and styled via a CSS text-transform to uppercase.
That said, regardless of how it was applied, the all-caps is for style, not the proper title of the article.

#10Serious question, if sea level increases are so damaging and feared is it possible to build a water pipeline (like an oil pipeline) from higher coastland to a lower area and then create an artificial river to use in an artificial dam. I think estimates put sea levels rising at around 3 mm a year. I did the rough math and 3mm cubed is a lot but I think it can be doable for $15B and the potential artificial dam might be useful too. I have absolutely no knowledge of any of this though and apologize if the idea seems stupid
