TEDx on Climate Change

The most surprising fact was that people will still survive this. I don't think the human population will be nearly as large as it is now. Rising sea levels take away large areas of land needed for agriculture and domesticated animals such as cows, horses, sheep, etc. The rise in temperature is already leading to diseases and parasites and bugs spreading to areas in which they didn't exist before. The quality of life is sure to go down and likely the average life-span, as well. It is wholly unnerving and the extreme cold period and warm period will be very harsh for people to endure. I'm worried these circumstances are setting the stage for mass extinction as proven in the past to happen along with climate change. Decreasing biodiversity will harm life in the ocean and on land, in turn, harming humanity, as well. Fossil fuels are not worth these catastrophic consequences lasting thousands of years.
