What so bad about Global Warming?

Stop, for a moment, and consider:

* people inhabit regions on Earth where temperatures regularly reach -40 °F to those where temperatures regularly exceed 120 °F. Our planet's critters inhabit even more extreme regions.

* people fly from sub-zero winters to Mediterranean or tropical holidays -- where they toast themselves in the sunshine. Birds and mammals migrate from polar to tropical regions and back again every year.

* people and animals we can surmise, can tolerate huge changes in temperature and generally seek warmth.

These things you can see and, if you can afford, probably do. Now, why are you frightened of the unfortunately slight possibility you won't have to spend so much keeping warm?
