This type of change, while certainly having negative consequences, is not a

Global warming will alter weather conditions around the world. It would

havoc. The
political consequences of this cannot be determined but it is likely
that they
will be bad for those currently at the top (us). An asteroid hit will be far
more devastating but there is no indication that one is imminent.
We should know in about 23 years.
