The Hadley Climate Research Center produced a global/regional map of climate change based on business as usual emissions for 2050..... The Midwest is supposed to warm up by 7C on an annual basis by 2050..... BULL****
Of course the Hadley site no longer has a working link to the map... They probably realized that it was complete and utter nonsense.
Even though I do believe MMGW is a major factor in recent warming (last 50 years), I do not believe the long range climate models. There is just no way that the Midwest will warm by 7C in 33 years time.

i agree. these type of exaggerations do more harm than good. however, there are places in the arctic (e.g svalbard) that have warmed uncontrollably in recent decades. not that i'm worried. people will take action when it becomes too obvious too ignore. within 50-100 years is my guess. but there has to be an economically sustainable solution..
