I don't think you understand what that number means at all. 24K years ago New York was under 4 miles of ice, during summer. If that happened today, do you think the government of Canada and United States would survive such a schenario?How many people would be left alive in North America, 30% of the current population? How big do you think the change in global temperature was during the last ice age? 30 degrees or 20 degrees? It was only 6 degrees. That's all it takes. Average yearly temperature for Hong Kong is 23 degrees, for Dubai it's 26 degrees. 3 degrees is the difference between lush tripics and a desert where you will starve because nothing grows. A global change of 3 degrees means 12 degree change on land because 70% of the planet is an ocean and it's tempersture doesn't change |
