Can you provide the information on this, I'd like to read it.

What if I am wrong and CO2 is a real green house gas.
Then things arent that bad. The earth has seen CO2 levels around 7000 ppm (right now it is about 380ish PPM) with temperatures no more than 8 to 10 degrees cooler.
during those periods, the earth had its greatest diversity of flora and fauna.
If that happned and the polar regions warmed, and the ice caps melted signifantly (even worst case) then the vast areas of Siberia, Canada and Alaska would all the sudden be freed up for the production of food.
Warming of that nature would cause sea level rise that would flood out about 500 million people but would make 1/5 of the earths land mass more livable.
So even IF CO2 is a serious green house gas, there is nothing to worry about.

Ferd, what do you believe the economic impact would be as a result of 500 million people having to flee global flooding?
