IPCC models say that the climate can warm up by up to 6.4C by 2090-2099. Do you like or hate it?

Me of course not. I would hate the new ultra hot summers.

I'm not against a small amount of warming (2-3C), as long as it doesn't throw things out of whack.

Local warming would be ideal though.

Who in there right mind will be in favor of millions of people around the world to die, shrinking of coastlines, flooding and expansion of deserts?

People will have to adapt like they might have done say, during an ice-age? That so many cold loving foamers want so bad. I'm not of the belief myself that "global warming" is a man made thing anyway. If it happens, we'll have to adapt to it like anything else that happens.

it's not possible, though they try, and fail publicly, to forecast hurricane season intensity a few weeks in advance, and you're going to tell me they're guesstimating temperature changes decades from now? good luck with that.

DonI like global warming? Don't know. Haven't really experienced that much of it yet in my region.

Btw,
The IPCC models for future warming in the time frame that they claim it will occur is complete bull****

Adapt yes, but the lesser developed countries won't be able to especially if they don't develop within the next 10-20 years to Western European standards. I doubt Bangladesh, India, Nigeria, Cambodia etc will within that timeframe.

And also during ice age times we didn't have permanent settlements like we have today New York, London, low countries and virtually all islands are doomed.

The IPCC models predictions proven to be wrong in the past. Why i should believe in a 100 years futurology?
