The story at the moment is a 2 deg c up tick, that sounds pretty fine to me. So we don't get snow so often? OK, but the summers are nicer. All good.
But if the reality is that wild fires burn my house to the ground and snow storms cut me off, freeze my pipes and stop me getting to work - now I'm listening.
So better documentation of exactly how badly we are screwed? The ship is sinking. We can measure water inflow to better predict how long we have, or we can start plugging the holes asap and pray we can do so in time.
The extremes are moving, and it doesn't take many shifts to destroy everything. E.g. dry + fire, or ice + time, or storms + floods, or humidity + time
