      That’s not how climate change works lol. Some areas become cooler, some become warmer. On average it gets hotter by 2.5 degrees or less now.

      That means unless you live somewhere that can’t stave it off like near a lowlying coastline or in other heavily affected areas already well predicted, then you will literally be fine.

      Better people than the average Lemming listen when they hear people are going to die or have their lives severely affected.

        Yes on average over a multiple decade period. This says nothing about how weather is going to change and it’s likely to change a lot. Extreme weathers are going to be way more likely anywhere you are.
