Many people are saying it folks: 4 degrees of warming by the end of the century (even as soon as 2070s) is a real possibility. How much longer do you think the :lmayo: countries in the north can hang on under these conditions?

    Essentially every decade will have a 2-3 percent chance of this happening, as the sun's activity runs on an 11 year cycle. This is going to happen eventually, and we are completely unprepared for it, as evidenced by how long the grid goes down for even when there are localized issues.
