even if the president himself has talked about a potential plan b, you saw what one of his top advisers, stevenler said, that they are, quote, absolutely willing to risk a shutdown to get the wall money. the thing to remember is that even if this hard line discussion and hardline rhetoric for a border wall may play well with the president's base there's not a big constituency or any constituency on capitol hill, even among republicans for risking a shutdown to get that border wall money. i talked to a lot of republicans last week, and they -- while they would like to support the president on his border security goals, they are not going to go as far as a shutdown to get there. that's why it appears that the white house may have to be the one to cave. right now the president has no signs of doing that. >> he might not, susan. two years is a really, really long time in anyone's political book, especially the playbook of washington politics. it's not like we're a month before the midterms here. this is two years out from 2020. we'll see. the president may be gambling on that. i want your take on s

colleague steven hawking that we can have mass immigration to mars because it is far harder than dealing with climate change here on the earth. we have to make the earth habitable. there's no planet b or risk averse people. the point is people who know know it's far less clement than the top of everest and to make it habitable would be almost impossible and they would be living under some sort of bubble and a few pioneers will do this. i think we should wish them good luck because they are the people who pioneer post humanity because they'll be away from the regulators, every motive to use genetic modification and cyborg techniques to adapt to that environment. they will be doing something important in cosmic history, but i don't think ever will we see mass emigration to mars. >> the u.n. is putting out its new report and it's quite dire, in fact. it says the world is woefully short of the two-degree goal for climate change. projections of carbon emissions from countries put us on a path for 3.2 degrees celsius, 5.7 degrees fahrenheit warming by the end of this century. break that down. what does it mean for us mere mortals. how do we understand that? >> well, of course, it's not s
