"Check CO2 levels in the atmosphere over the past 500 million years, not just the last couple of centuries. That will give you a better guide to what Earth can stand.? " Just did see: en.wikipedia.org Has a nice graph showing the past 460,000 years, the CO2 level is higher than it has ever been for all of those years by about80 parts per million. "Once somewhere gets to 0 degrees Celsius, it's already so cold that nothing is growing, everybody where's warm clothes and hides inside. Another 10 degrees is neither here nor there, though they'd have to invest in snow removal from roads, which is no big deal. Or buy snow tyres." Obviously, you have never lived in COLD country, just visited for a while. When I lived in Anchorage I seldom wore even a light jacket except when it got really cold, -10 F and below, it was shirt sleeve weather at 10 above, at 0 C it was miserable camping because you got wet. At -10 F Camping with my Boy Scout troop was fun. Being out for two days in this weather I usually wore a light parka, or long underwear and a couple of layers, like a sweatshirt and light jacket, and a warm hat, still have my beaver skin Russian style hat. Do remember spending a week in Fairbanks, the Temp never got up to -50 F. wore whatever I could put on if I had to go out in that. The worst I saw was -50 F and 50 Mile/hour wind in Palmer one night. don't even want to guess the chill factor. frost bite in less than one minute to exposed skin, didn't expose any skin. r
