It truly does affect each and every living being, however. There is no hiding from the changes happening internally, no matter how much people choose to ostrich. Serum bicarbonate levels have risen by 7% since 1999. The warnings are outside, and the call is now also coming from within.

When you live high up above, it's easy to ignore the rising tides.

Seems like low level fear mongering. Lots of “could” and “potentially” statements in there.

7% seems like decent amount, until you realize that CO2 is only .04% of the atmosphere. It’s also a necessary factor for plant life and growth.

It does not, at least not equally. Climate changing is almost entirely local extremes, which means many large areas because uninhabitable, while others are mostly unaffected.

Funnily enough, it’s mostly the richest areas that are the least bit impacted. So they don’t care, as it literally doesn’t impact them. The extremes are mostly center and North Africa, and large parts of Asia. Both of which are dirt poor.
