BTW why is colder supposed to be better than warmer when the warmer regions of the planet are much more diverse and plentiful in wildlife?

It's your fault, Ree.. Your fault.
"So Seemingly Alaska becomes a better place to live?"
You both skipped the Biology classes.
that's because i reckon it far too late for civilisation to change significantly... mainly because people are just too comfortable with their lifestyles and expect others to do the sacrificing. not to mention, asking the average person to understand the science behind the issue is also an impossible proposition.
in the next few years we have around TWO last-ditch opportunities to save ourselves-- carbon sequestration and atmospheric engineering. so if you enjoy living in a semblance of the reality we enjoy right now, you better hope and pray the scientists and engineers can come up with something very quickly and it doesn't become a huge clusterfluff due to politics, logistics, economics, etc.
if that stuff doesn't work, we're simply toast. ...along with 90% or more of life on earth. well, too bad, if so. death comes for us all, either way. not to mention, an industrial planet burning itself up is probably one of the oldest stories in the cosmos, so i don't think for a moment that we're some special case, here.
humanity and life on earth... gotta just take the good with the bad and call it a day. :)
