Can you name advantages coming from global warming ?
I can think of: -less cold related diseases -shorter, milder winter -easier transport without snow and ice blocking highways, railways and sea routes, which helps lower the cost of supply and logistics -longer harvest season and increased agricultural production for several countries -less energy needed to heat homes, reducing smog and pollution -more cattle as more grazing areas are uncovered -longer building period which is usually slowing down or haltng alltogether in autum/winter -opportunity to rebuild cities from the coastal areas into new and modern high tech developments using modern techniques, materials and planning
Anything else that we can think of? I think overall it seems that global warming is quite an advantage to our civilization.
I'd love not to have to shovel snow. But less energy to heat homes also means more energy to cool them. The grain belt may move northward. Great for Canadian farmers, not so great for the Midwestern US. Disease is more likely to INCREASE. Pests and parasites (like mosquitos) are killed by cold weather. Consider all the "tropical" diseases of South America and Africa. "Cold related diseases" mostly aren't caused by "cold" Just that we huddle in enclosed spaces where we can sneeze on each other. As for "new, modern, high tech cities", look at all the people today who don't want to move even though rising sea levels and increasing hurricanes (which are caused by the additional thermal energy) have put them in Flood Zones and no one will sell them insurance.

A drastic reduction in the number of sandy beaches leading to less skin cancer. All the sandy parts will be underwater

endless wildfires, one of them will toast you. best thing ever

Josiah Sanders
Scandinavia, Alaska, Canada, Russia, etc. High altitude or cold climates.
Logan Cruz

Good catch. Another advantage of global warming:third world dies off.

More like 3rd world comes here. Not peasants anymore, military trained gangs. If you think the North Mexico drug gangs are bad now, they will be an amateur night show compared to former military crew that has nothing to lose.

I am from Poland. Refugees don't have superpowers. If you don't want them in your country just turn them back and if they cross the border illegally just shoot them.
Tyler Moore
More carbon dioxide in the atmosphere means bigger crop yields.
Bigger crop yields don't mean shit if you lose all your arable land to desertification though.
Jason Fisher
>More like 3rd world comes here. Economists agree that population growth is good for the economy.
Another point in favour of global warming.
Alexander Powell
>Bigger crop yields don't mean shit if you lose all your arable land to desertification though. Central and Northern Europe ins't threatened by desertification unde global warming, many other areas also aren't
Tyler Scott
The Supremacy of Europe and America seems assured thanks to blessing of global warming
Justin Wright
Loss of arable land in the most population dense areas coupled with sea level rise means lots of starvation and migration and an increased chance of military conflict.
The United States would likely try to usurp land from Canada.
Carson Kelly

>Refugees don't have superpowers Look at the mess ISIS has created in Europe. And that was just from a tiny area in Syria. If India and Pakistan become uninhabitable, it'll be like ISIS, except with nuclear bombs and biological weapons.

Colton Ortiz
>less cold related diseases Pathogens tend to do better in warmer conditions. Thawing permafrost can release ancient viral strains. Changes in seabird migratory patterns leads to new pathways and mutations for Bird Flu strains. Sea Level Rise creates more brackish water for diseases to thrive in. Mixing of fresh and saltwater from melting icecaps means that more freshwater viruses meet saltwater viruses and more diseases are created. Disease vectors expand range >shorter, milder winter Longer, harsher summer >easier transport without snow and ice blocking highways, railways and sea routes, which helps lower the cost of supply and logistics Sea level rise and storm surges damage coastal transportation infrastructure. More strong storms knock areas out of commission for months (see Puerto Rico and the IV bag shortage Irma caused in the USA). Poorly build highways and roads are destroyed in extreme heatwaves. >longer harvest season and increased agricultural production for several countries Wavier jet stream due to changes in Polar air mass temperature cause more unpredictable weather at strange times of year. More pests able to expand range and damage crops. Crops struggle in extreme heatwaves. Most of the world lives in tropical and subtropical regions where no benefit is felt anyway >less energy needed to heat homes, reducing smog and pollution Reduces the albedo of the earth by removing global dimming, which further speeds up the warming >more cattle as more grazing areas are uncovered More methane to make the issue worse >longer building period which is usually slowing down or haltng alltogether in autum/winter More time wasted repairing buildings damaged in extreme weather. >opportunity to rebuild cities from the coastal areas into new and modern high tech developments using modern techniques, materials and planning This is a fantasy. We aren't going to rebuild thousands of huge cities overnight. More like tent cities everywhere, and overpopulation inland.
Justin Watson
nothing worth bombing there, they were after the rich countries
Jack Allen
>Sea level rise and storm surges damage coastal transportation infrastructure. Not all countries have extensive coast, not all depend on sea trade and these kind of damages aren't extensive. >Poorly build highways and roads are destroyed in extreme heatwaves. So they will be made well. Plenty of highways working well in places like Thailand or Saudi Arabia. > Most of the world lives in tropical and subtropical regions where no benefit is felt anyway Third world is not important for human civilization. As you yourself observe the benefit of global warming on agriculture can't be denied. >More methane to make the issue worse Kek, even better. Also cattle has no significant impact of methane in the atmosphere. >More time wasted repairing buildings damaged in extreme weather. Weather changing by +2/3 degrees won't make it extreme in Central Europe >More time wasted repairing buildings damaged in extreme weather. Yeah, we can see how whole cities are being constantly rebuilt in places like Singapore or Abu Dhabi right ?

Those who lack vision lack success.We will have whole arcologies and new modern cities not the crap we have now.
Logan Wilson
that's because European leadership wanted lawless open border policy
yeah if your entire power structure in governance wants a mass of chaotic immigration it will happen.
Meanwhile you don't see the same thing in Korea/Japan because they don't want it. Same thing with Australia and detaining boats.
The mess of immigrants in Europe wasn't some inevitable force of nature. It was asked for and planned for by the people in charge.
Hunter Stewart
wtf are you rambling about? those were just piss poor refugees. We're talking about what happens when whole countries like India and Pakistan pull up the anchor and start moving north. That's at least 2 billion people, and now it's armies with their training and weapons. They won't attack like an army, it will be unsymmetrical warfare.
Levi White
>those were just piss poor refugees. No they weren't, they were just men sent to colonize Europe. >We're talking about what happens when whole countries like India and Pakistan pull up the anchor and start moving north.

Most of them would die on way to Europe, and they could only bring small firearms with them. Bring it on. The drone swarms will have a feast on those attempting to cross the border.
Benjamin Williams
>its armies >they wont' attack like an army
You are delusional about global warming and the military strength of poor refugees
Ryder Anderson

Wyatt Jackson
By the time global warming actually hits, we will already have robot servants and futuristic survival equipment. When we reach this point our plan was always to genocide everyone else but global warming will actually save us a lot of money. Most poor people will die from it for free, and then we will only have to headhunt the few rich people outside of our group.
Luis Reyes
Sure, if you live in Canada, Russia, Iceland, and Alaska it'll be awesome for you.
If you live in the Middle East, North Africa, Mexico, Southwestern US, Western China, and most of South America .... not so much

Temperate areas are already feeling shit hit the fan. So, no.
Oh, that's global changes in precipitation. Sorry, no title.

Extra carbon means better growth for crops.

Actually good point. I could cook up a professional looking map and claiming whatever I want.

Increases the habitable regions of my country while also increasing in uninhabitable regions. So that's a draw.
I don't know. Can't think of any beyond the Migrants Meme, and our political and business leaders seem hell bent on overpopulating our country with third world trash anyway.
And it's not like that's a legitimate concern, as there is an easy and rational solution to it.
So...nothing really.
Liam Morgan
>More like 3rd world comes here.
I would care about that meme if the third world wasn't being shipped into my country by the millions ANYWAY.
Plus the simple solution is to kill them to prevent them from entering.
I really dont' give a shit about what happens to them as their problems are their own - no one asked Bangladesh to squeeze 100 million retards into a tiny, unstable region.
Carson Bailey
The U.S./European powers could annihilate India and Pakistan overnight.
Not saying they WOULD, but the problem is only due to the weakness of leadership, not logistics.
Josiah Perry
>Global warming will make every part of the planet warmer >Global warming won't cause temperature extremes to rise on both ends, creating weather that is both too hot and too cold
Lucas Williams
So it's not global warming.
Connor Miller
>global warming >GLOBAL Global, as in all-over, as in on average - the entire world's mean temperature.
Brody Green
Right.
So it's, quite literally, not Global Warming according to your original comment.
Jaxson Rodriguez
The full name is AGW but often the 'average' is left out, it is understood. This is because most of us don't eat the crayons.
Connor Davis
I’m looking forward to the possible collapse of the current agricultural system.
Jayden Morgan
EVERYTHING IS FINE
Luke Wilson
if you actually read the studies plenty of countries will increase their agricultural production
Levi Harris
I think you misunderstood my comment. I didn’t say “I look forward to the collapse of the agricultural system and the mass starvation that would lead from it.” The increase in agricultural output will necessarily lead to changes domestically. That’s what I’m looking forward to.
