Let's look at global warming from another perspective...why is it such a bad thing?
I support global warming. I will be able to plant my tomatoes earlier in the year. This Chicago winter is miserable, let's get rid of it.
I know that those are sarcastic examples but how come it is such a bad thing? If it will change the climate in ways that will increase crop productivity then how do we know if we should take such drastic measures to stop it? The population of this planet continues to rise and the majority of people live in poverty. Maybe we'll be able to go crops in places that were never possible before.
