Hey Vajradhatu, Scientists have found out that a raise of one or two degrees in the 'Average Global Temperature' will wipe out most of the tropical Rainforests and turn them into Grasslands or deserts.
Computer simulations also show that Evergreen Rainforests are extremely sensitive to rising temperatures. Much of the Genetic diversity, bio-chemical wealth and medicinal potential will be lost if these Rainforests disappear.
Raising temperatures will also cause the Permafrost in high latitudes to thaw and thus releasing CO2 and methane trapped in them into
the atmosphere.
Tropical diseases will also spread into high Latitudes and Altitudes.

Also, look at any picture of Chinese industry and they look like Pittsburgh, PA in the 40's. Scary. And it will only get worse as these countries inherit our old technologies.
