The predicted rate of warming for the next century is at least 20 times faster.
water vapor has the capacity to double the warming caused by carbon dioxide alone
Storms, floods, and droughts
global food production could increase
As tropical temperature zones expand, the reach of some infectious diseases, such as malaria, will change.

Many of the areas with exclusionary zoning and mortgage backed securities will end up flooded while the Canadian archipelago and northern Greenland will become inhabitable. We'll have a chance to make housing affordable and build infrastructure reasonably. IMO: it's not all bad.
On balance, most research suggests that the negative impacts of a changing climate far outweigh the positive impacts. Current civilization—agriculture and population distribution—has developed based on the current climate. The more the climate changes, and the more rapidly it changes, the greater the cost of adaptation.
Those species, and in some cases, entire ecosystems, that cannot quickly migrate or adapt, face extinction.

On balance sure, but some groups of people will benefit, specifically those that recognize what's happening and prepare. This is an opportunity for those that have been excluded to rise up.
Not bothered. If this stuff does anything at all i'll be long dead. Besides it can't be that bad anyways. As long as we don't go all termites on this planet by overpopulating it with morons we'll be alright...
there's no global warming, it's a cover to reduce fossil fuels usage, nothing more
quickly migrate
Urgent: space colonization.

The global warming social panic is a cover to implement socialism. We give up our freedoms to the government and the government promises lower global warming for the upcoming future; this is the stated premise. In actual practice, the elites will continue to eat the choicest meats while travelling in jets and yachts all over the world while everybody else will continue to be oppressed in the name of fighting global warming.
I wish that was true, socialism is awesome.
wtf i love socialism now
it's about fossil fuels and reducing population of socialists
