    I'm all for proper seasons rather than different shades of grey. I'll gladly take colder winters for more summers like this one, with our utility companies and other infrastructure services having to adapt accordingly.

      I always thought that temperatures rise around the world then we'll just become a hot country like the ones we go to on holiday to get some decent sun.

      Will be catastrophic for those hot countries if they become uninhabitable during the summer - and wildlife, vegetation. Doesn't really bear thinking about but we might be doing more than just think about it if this keeps up!

        Doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. We're just another transient species - just a little more destructive than most.

          But as those areas get hotter - surely places with lots of Ice - like Greenland - the ice will melt thus leaving more arable and livable land?

          Or not?

            I'm sure it will all work itself out

              And then the low lying arable lan in places like East Anglia, Lincolnshire, Kent will be lost to the sea.

                  Does that float? It needs to float.

                    Hopefully by the time anything like this is needed it will fly as well

                      Anything that flies will need to land eventually and therefore will need to float...unless of course it is cloudbase

                      in which case I'll happily live there with Destiny, Harmony, Symphony, Melody and Rhapsody.
