At a Simple Level - does it matter?

Hi Timothy,

Altered rain and sun will alter where food can and can't be grown. This may
induce wide spread food shortages. Ocean currents may alter and the EU may
become not a nice place to live. Coastal sea rises will cause the forced
migration of say a few 100 million as well as wiping out vast sections of
investment portfolios. Warmer conditions may induce new disease vectors as
well as extinct a lot of species with unknown down the road results. Then
warmer oceans may release methane from ocean bottom sores and accelerate
global warming to a point where H2S release may increase to the point that
it reduces the ozone layer worldwide.

Bottom line the climate beast this is not something we should be poking
sticks at.

All the best,
