While we are alarmed by the conditions that the people in some regions are experiencing, it's also true that warmer regional temperatures benefit more people. The maximum predicted global temperature will benefit larger land areas than are currently under threat. I am talking about the two largest countries: Canada and Russia.

Eventually, Bangladesh my become mostly uninhabitable. It is not a coincidence that low tech nations suffer disproportionately,. Also, high population densiity plays a significant role.

"Act now"- means leave the soon to be uninhabitable regions if you live in one - leave NOW and avoid the rush. Move to Canada, Russia is currently under the control of a deranged autocrat. The mobility of human beings has always worked before, it will work now just as well.

I have lived my life at 42º North Latitude. The warming we are experiencing is shortening the time of winter conditions which use more energy and kill more people than hot regions do. Look at a globe and you will see that 42º North and South Latitudes benefit from the needed warmth and encompass more land areas.

There is plenty of fresh water and water tables remain usable. By transporting melting glacial waters to areas in need, the water shortages can be mitigated - but no one has realized this yet.

We are given partial facts, without being allowed to see the countervailing facts. This is entirely due to political party "strategies."
