Go green?
At the royal academy of sciences a few years ago the idea is to Go North, to move north, and if you're already there, plan for company very soon.
The idea expressed in this lecture suggests we tend toward adaptation rather than mitigation.
Even if we reduce carbon emissions, that will also decrease aerosols in the atmosphere that have a reflective effect currently (as pollution) and as the reflective layer it has a cooling effect. Remove the aerosols and we remove the 'protective' layer of reflection and the sun's warmth will nail us (with anywhere from a 2-4 degree raise in temperature). Either way it's getting hotter.
