Not to mention the negative effects (and to what scope) the mitigation is.Can the earth survive getting warmer? Depending on “how much” warmer, probably. Can humanity survive what could be hugely negative economic consequences to it may take to “fix” things? Perhaps not. I can move futher north or shen more clothes if it gets hotter
I can’t feed and house myself if companies close becuase they don’t meet draconian standards

Major migrations of industrialized nations are going to suck big-time, especially if we didn’t create infrastructure or planning because it was going to be expensive and ‘draconian’.

You won’t be able to feed or house yourself if agriculture is destroyed, or if you’re just another American refugee sitting in a camp outside Toronto…and by the way, Mr. Border Jumper, what part of ‘illegal’ didn’t you understand?

The effects of this stuff, should it come to pass will be major. We need to have a better response than “I can go somewhere else”, because a LOT of us will need to go somewhere else if we get to that stage.

And this is just North America I’m thinking of. And I haven’t even considered who’s south of us.

This would be a lot uglier than moving north, or ‘shedding clothes’, if I understand the projections correctly.
