"At 4 degrees we are basically into a different climate regime," said Prof Neil Adger, an expert on adaptation to climate change at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research in Norwich.
In order to prepare for a global temperature increase of 4 degrees, I have cranked the AC up so my house temperature is 4 degrees lower. Thanks for the warning science-man!
OK...I'll go with what "will happen" at 4 degrees higher... I would like to know how the resultant millions of acres of additional arable, agricultural crop-producing land in Canada, Russia, Alaska, Sweden, Finland, etc. will be a problem... Co-incidentally this additional farm acreage will be where the greatest amount of unused fresh water currently exists. I suppose the Gore-Suzuki "school of thought" would surmise that such scenario would still see vast numbers of the human race perish in Africa, Asia, Central and South America ? Or in [God forbid],flooded New York, London, or Tokyo.... But humans always migrate to where they can survive...they have since the beginning of time, and vast numbers will migrate yet again....many will not survive, entire civilizations may be wiped out by disease and starvation...but we are talking total survival here, and many generations hence...it's not over, and it's not a crisis unless one considers their own lifestyle to be somehow the epitome of civilization. It isn't. It's not an "us" situation. It's not a "them" situation.... I do believe "we" will survive.

You are absolutly correct. Canada should be encouraging global warming. Canada will have more usable land to use. More food can be produced which mean more political power. Many people say Canada doesn't have a voice on the world's table. That will certaintly change when Canada is bringing the dinner!

Prepare for global temperature rise of 4C, warns top scientist
Bring it on, I want to see Palm trees in Vancouver!

I have lots of petrified ones from southern BC,not sure of the age but they were big!

I just want to see 4 months every year with no snow.
