Which precautions should one take? Let me guess is going to costs someone some money. Am I right? Where are the studies showing the BENEFIT of the climate change? Raining in Pakistan and Iran means a huge reforestation. The whole Sahara may bloom again. Food prices plummet as Russia and Canada becomes a Brazil. Mild temperatures in northern hemisphere decrease the use of home heating. Cooling Arizona decreases the use of Air conditioning. Now, anyone want to persuade me that there is only bad effects? Huge swaths of land open for sugar cane and production of ethanol. (almost forgot this one.)
