Benefits of Climate Change – Is Climate Change Bad?

Benefits of Climate Change

Feeling Hot?

Thank global warming.

It’s unnaturally warm for February. We should feel great but we feel a touch guilty. February isn’t supposed to be like early summer. But is climate change all bad? Not for those of us who were born in the Northern Hemisphere. Skies are blue and sun starved (PASTY) Englishmen are smiling. Climate change doesn’t have to mean doom and gloom – as least in the short term – there are benefits of climate change.

The planet is changing, but it always has changed; that’s why there are no dinosaurs…..so what’s the problem?  We haven’t had a world war for over 50 years so we need something to get worked up about. Bingo! Climate change is the jackpot topic. Climate change unites the most unlikely of bed fellows, intent on saving the planet.

Climate Change – History

Mother Earth can be a bit temperamental from time to time – remember Pompeii, Atlantis, and Krakatau? Did we contribute to climate change then? No. Historically flood, famine and fire regularly flare up. In the cold light of an ice age dawn, does a bit of additional sunshine today, mean we’re all doomed for 2100?

Benefits of Climate Change

The benefits of climate change are quite heart warming – and everything else warms as well, so the heating bills are down. Climate change means that many farm animals will have two breeding seasons, good news for lovers of lamb and mint producers. Another Benefit Climate change means that houses built on wetland sites will crumble away and the wild orchids will return. If we’re going to return to the ox cart as a means of transport, fine – but we’ve all got to do it, no exceptions. That means no emergency life saving treatment in gas guzzling ambulances, lighting up the night sky with a 10,000 watts of power.

Are you that much of a Climate Change eco warrior that you’ll willingly bend over backwards to save a bit of CO2? Quit banging on about the ethical benefits of  eco car hire and enjoy the benefits of climate change in a stylish, fast car. The climate IS changing, and we’ve given it a helping hand. This might be a lot of hot air, but we should make hay while the sun shines.

I think our climate change is quite normal. We had sunny and warm February and England had snow. Lots of snow. It was like a week ago.
All these CO2 saving is a bit exaggerated – that’s my opinion only.

The winter here in Michigan has been terrible this year. We’ve had double the average snowfall all the way up till about 2 weeks ago.

Then we had a week of very warm (temps approaching the 60s) weather that melted the entire thing and turned my home into a pond…which would then freeze at night.

Personally, I hope things get warmer. I might take things into my own hands and move South in case the global warming experts are wrong. I just can’t wait 200 years for things to warm up.

We are currently having a quite harsh winter in Germany. Loads of snow and pretty cold temperatures. On the other hand an extremely hot summer is expected. Temperatures are getting more and more extreme here, which is not good at all. My opinion is that we have to save CO2 emissions in order to keep the temperature on our planet on a constant level – otherwise we will face the worst imaginable consequences.

Climate change can be dangerous especially if it’s extreme. We have to take care of our environment in order to avoid drastic climate changes. If we don’t we’re going to have to suffer the consequences, unfortunately.

Well you say that and it’s partialy true. However then comes a winter and you want to go snowboardin/skiing and suddenly you can’t cause there’s no snow anywhere. Like last year. I payed for the whole trip and ended up spending the whole time drunk because there was so little snow that I was able to go snowboarding only on the first day,

Climate change is a natural process. Population growth and development of technologies are delivering some undesired affects on the natural sources. That’s why there is strong need to preserve nature on individual basis instead of leaving the solo responsibility upon the administration.

Well said. Climate change is a must needed natural process. It helps the planet to maintain the balance in the growth of favorable and unfavorable developments.

I have never viewed global warming in this way before. It has always been seen as bad in every single way. I think it is interesting how you have seen the good side in this catatstrphic disaster which is soon about to destoy Earth. However, I think there are much more disadvantages than advantages. To say you love global warming is far too extreme.
