Funny, if grim, hypothesis Bruce.
I like it.
No problem though,
we all just migrate the estimated 30' a day
towards the poles.

Hi, Pete,

It won't come to that, quite.

After some more years of climate change, the coastal areas of ALL
countries will begin to seriously flood.  Meanwhile, crop production
will plummet as some farmland becomes too dry, some too wet, and some
just too hot and farmers fail to adjust quickly enough to the change
-- if that were even possible.  This will lead to mass migration,
starvation, epidemics, and nuclear war.  A nuclear winter will follow
and cool the earth once again.

It's the Gaia hypothesis with human technology thrown into the mix.

Too bad we won't be there to see it!
