Considering the current apathy shown by most of humanity as to the global warming issue, the current 1 deg.C average rise above pre-industrial world temperature will very likely lead to a 2 deg. rise and very quickly, onward to 6 degrees before year 2100. What will happen during this period? Here are the fearsome projections advanced by a great number of the world's atmospheric scientists: 1.

Translation: more hunger for subsistence fishermen's families and less seafood for all humanity; b) streams, rivers, lakes and exposed freshwater sources evaporate to levels that create near-permanent farmland droughts that create mass hunger for worldwide poor. Crimes, rebellions and wars for remaining irrigable land, for water sources and for food become common planet-wide; c) ever-rising heat further melt already disappe
