You do realize that it takes many years for the carbon we produce to get up into the atmosphere far enough to act as a greenhouse gas (being so far up in the atmosphere)? What we're going to see is a huge global spike in temperature in the next couple of decades.

Oh good, I thought you were one of the people who didn't think global warming was going on at all.

But we need to do some serious planning in order to curb the effects of climate change, even a two foot rise of the oceans would be devastating to some communities, especially in areas like Bangladesh where the government really can't put much towards protecting the communities along the coasts, and hundreds of thousands, if not millions, would be displaced from their homes in these high-density areas.





Climate change won't change much in Minnesota, but in poorer regions of the world, or even where I live, Florida, it would have a profound impact.
