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?

    Yes, this is like how people misunderstand the fall of the Roman Empire. It wasn't a sudden cataclysm that made it collapse overnight, or even a few years. It was hundreds of years of slow decline leading up to that. For the periphery of the empire, collapse came much more quickly than the imperial core, it's not as if everyone had the same collective experience.
