The only people who dislike this weather less than farmers are:

Environazi now that's a fitting term I like it.

For North America, it is evident to me that a longer frost free year is advantageous, as is more numerous heat degree days. I, therefore, encourage all the climate alarmists to keep on pumping all the GHGs they can into the atmosphere as they venture on their way to the next march meeting place destination that will save our planet. Job well done, but please crank it up faster. I'm still to damn cold.

The average person breathes out 2lbs of co2 per day so times that by 9 billion and growing rapidly I guess next the tax will be on breathing. Better yet maybe they will start a pandemic that will reduce carbon emissions world wide.

Heard that before...humans are a PARASITE on the earth. We are KILLING our selves.
"For North America, it is evident to me that a longer frost free year is advantageous, as is more numerous heat degree days"
No kidding, we should NEVER have been part of this horseshit idea, instead cheered the possibility!

Where's the uproar over fukishima! We are losing the entire pacific ocean and we don't hear a peep from the environazis. Get your priorities straight you've been brainwashed. Stop calling coal and petrol evil we do not need more nuclear catastrophes.

Also what about the billions of gallons of sewage cities world wide are putting into the rivers lakes and oceans. We can live in a world with a perfect climate but without water it pretty hard to survive and yes the radioactive material in the Pacific is a real catastrophe but funny nobody cares just wait a few years till cancer rates explode.

"Then think about the rest of the world - places where they may hit 37C more often instead of 30C and where hundreds of millions live by subsistence agriculture."

I thought the crooks are screaming about a DEGREE or TWO, now you are up to 7?

There is quite a difference between "an average" and a "range of variation". While 2 degrees is talked about as an average global temperature increase this will be made up of cold spells and hot spells. So not unlikely to see more spells of temperatures +/- 10C off "normal" averages. If you think hot and dry won't affect you ask Burnt how the corn crop fared in Ontario last summer.

Really??

That is good news. sounds like the weather for the last hundred years or so on the prairies. There is no normal temperature here, only average
Crops burn up every now and then, but it has been a while. Note the record world wheat stocks for example
I will not debate that human activity has changed the weather patterns. But if it is to be assumed that humans have hastened change and now think that they can fix it then arrogance is alive and well in the scientific community.
