January in Aotearoa-Zimbabwe was cold. I'm voting for more heat. In Melbourne where one of our daughters lives, there have been 40 deg Celsius days. That's hot.

I don't pretend to know what's the best temperature for the average person. As a guess, with such huge landmass from Eurostan to Japan, where snow obliterates the landscape for months of the year, I guess that warmer is better. If Greenland melts that'll reduce land at the edges, but asteroids also make such land not habitable because tsunamis cause very rapid sea level rise and more of it than a century of inches a year.

Plants in general and crops in particular vote for more CO2. But COPD people vote for lower CO2 partial pressure, as do world record setting 10km athletes. I guess about 600 ppm would be a reasonable compromise. Maybe 1000ppm.

It's easy to stop producing CO2 = switch to photovoltaics, the giant fusion reactor in the sky, and various storage methods. It seems likely that people will do that to save money even without government taxes on carbon dioxide emissions. Freeloading farmers will have to go back to buying fuel to make CO2 crop food.

People who dislike heat can move here, northern Russia, Canada. People who like heat can move to Australia, Sahara, Florida, Arizona.
