      Why do you assume climate change simply means ‘it’ll get a couple degrees hotter everywhere?’ Will this ancient air conditioner allow Florida residents to continue living in their homes under 6 feet of water?

      What it means is more energy in the atmosphere which will be unleased in things like hurricanes, tornados, blizzards, floods, and yes, hotter weather. It isn’t going to change the entire planet into a desert climate, but it will make lots of areas uninhabitable.

      Every summer there are some who die of heat stroke. Yes, there are survivors, but that doesn’t mean the heat isn’t dangerous; it just means you’ve decided you’re comfortable with what you perceive to be a low risk. But each summer that heat stroke death toll will get higher. What happens when you decide you’re no longer comfortable with the risk? By then we will have missed several key opportunities in reducing CO2 levels. Better to stem the tide now, no?
