Default Altering climate affecting your pruning?

All,
The number of times folk are mentioning extremes of weather. Regardless whether you think climate change is a reality or not, i certainly feel that there are bigger extremes in the weather. Thing is, do any of you international arborists consider this when offering clients advise, tree spp, crown reduction etc, etc. Kinda feel we have a certain responsibility? In area of Scotland i remember recently reading that some orginations were considering serious crown reductions on Fagus sylvatica, shallow rooted, prone to windthrow and they wanted to preserve the population of Beeches?What do you think and have you altered you're mind set when offering advise??
