I am not sure (I think no one) that climate change is 100% anthropocentric. if we want to think that climate change is 100% , we need to think the entire universe a isolated static system, where only human has the power of influence others. We also should not forget that Human are part of nature. If what we are doing is bad than we must not survive

Climate change is generally bad, but for some regions (liks siberia), people may be engaged in farming.

I think it is not all bad. Some areas on the globe may be benefited. But untill Know it is not know which area will be affected in what form. In some places there will be increase/decrease in temperature, in another area there will be increase/ decrease in precipitation, while in some area there will be fluctuation.

Good question! Following

Hi Shahab Uddin

The world is evolving and change is definitely inevitable. This change of course include change of climate. However, the rapid change of climate (undoubtedly attributable to anthropocentric cause) is what is bad

Climate change and human intervention are very complex and intertwined problem... perception or consensus may not be enough to make a scientific conclusion... we can continue discussing on this issue endlessly

whatever, climate change is a reality. We may have question regarding the drivers but not about the issue. Climate is changing and any change in any system brings both positive and and negative effects. If the system survive after the change we can assume that both the forces normalized each--others and the system reached a new state of stability. And this is the feature of a dynamic system.

dont look at the future world. you are just modeling the future. look at the present and compare with the past... are we progressing?

Thanks Ahmadi Murjani , you are absolutely right

I agree with Shahab Uddin that the main problem now is not to stop climate changes because we can not but we can slow it down. Now one positive side of climate changes is increasing CO2 concentration which will benefit C3 plants (most of horticultural crops under this type) and the problem will be with increasing temperature and this can be mitigated by shifting the planting time. other problems like drought and salinity are serious ones and need more research to develop methods to overcome them and/or to breed new tolerant varieties.

The consequences of climate change will not be all bad. But the consequences negative effects will be far more devastating than the positive ones. To minimize those consequences, we have to take some measures and innovate for climate change mitigation and adaptation. These are some examples of the consequnces of climate change -

Advantages of Climate Change-

Improved agriculture in some high latitude regions (Mendelsohn 2006)

Increased growing season in Greenland (Nyegaard 2007)

Increased productivity of sour orange trees (Kimball 2007)

Winter deaths will decline as temperatures warm (HPA 2007)

An ice-free Northwest Passage, providing a shipping shortcut between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans (Kerr 2002, Stroeve 2008)

Disadvantages of Climate Change-

Decreasing human water supplies, increased fire frequency, ecosystem change and expanded deserts (Solomon 2009)

Encroachment of shrubs into grasslands, rendering rangeland unsuitable for domestic livestock grazing (Morgan 2007)

Increased deaths to heatwaves - 5.74% increase to heatwaves compared to 1.59% to cold snaps (Medina-Ramon 2007)

Loss of 2/3 of the world's polar bear population within 50 years (Amstrup 2007) Shahab Uddin

Dear Sheikh Mohammad Famim Ahmed A.M.R. Abdel-Mawgoud

Thanks a lot for your very valuable contribution

No

Climate change is world most important problem and it change meteorology parameters and causs uneven rainfall cause flood, water scarcity, agricultural and biological resourses also affected. So it is bad for our world. But in some region positive signature also shown eg. Temperate region new agricuture and new species origin in poles

climate change, most importantly co2 and temperature influencing the agriculture production (attached poster)

extreme rain, water scarcity, desertification , salinity intrusion, heat-wave, cold-wave , etc. ...these are not very generalized global phenomena...these are very specific local phenomena and mostly regulated by local causes in addition to global climate change.

some areas getting more rain and some areas less. same to other issues. we also need to keep in mind that the earth system may designed to entertain all the spaces and people on earth equally in a cyclic ways. and there are many such cycles we are experiencing in our life cycle, so we know them and we are not scared. some cycles are too long to experience in a single life. we know the future and we are scared

I think it's normal.

CC is not all bad. E.g. it extends the vegetation belt towards the north and south poles, meaning that agriculture can be done closer to the poles. Depending on region it could bring more rain where earlier too little had been, etc. However one can agree that the net result is negative, meaning more, far more suffer than those who benefit, and it seems also that those suffer most are least able to cope, adapt, deal with the various impacts of CC. These are, as prediction go, the poorer people, poorer countries of the world....

Another issue is that those countries and those people which/who did nothing contribute to CC are most severely affected. This is a crucial ethical observation that also hints at responsibility....

As far as I can see, not all areas of the world will suffer negativity with the global warming. The transition areas, for example, can have another environmental conditions than today that can contribute to new interventions and development. But the areas directly affected with level sea and rise of temperature will have to be capable to adapt and be resilient to new and known impacts.
