UN man-made global report warming report predicts end of the world?

So the UN has released yet another weighty report that suggests if we dont bring world temp increases down to around 1.5 degrees in the next century its game over and the world unable to correct itself. Its hard not to disagree with that and right to use words like 'catastrophe' to get people to sit up and notice. Its the people who will stop this as governments are hooked into creating jobs and wealth and so unlikely to sacrifice those things for slightly cooler Octobers. The only forced solution is to cut global population through birth control but we know that's not going to happen. In my lifetime the Earths population has double from 3.5 billion to 7 billion. Its too politically sensitive and a western family has five times as much pollution as third world families anyway so a bit rich. But that third world family will produce five or six kids that will eventually see some of those kids become polluting western families, or their countries middle class in growing poorer economies. Their argument is why should we pay the financial costs of cleaner economies when you guys made the mess? This is not fixable. -World population growth- 1800 - 1 billion 1927- 2 billion 1960-3 billion 1974 - 4 billion 1987 - 5 billion 1999 - 6 billion 2011 7 billion *2023 - 8 billion The best way forward is to keep inventing the green economy but also adapt to the changes. If sea levels are going to rise in some areas then its obvious people will begin to move away from those areas, the same way we would the Arctic Circle back in the days. But what we cant do is blame people for climate change as technology and earths population is going to crash on and expand and short of a nuclear war its game over for the Earth at some point. I'm afraid houses on stilts is the way we are heading guys.

I think that most people don't care about the "end of the world".

We need political leaders who are prepared to make difficult decisions and who are not always thinking about whether they will win their next election. We also need voters who are prepared to allow such politicians to make those decisions and not punish them for lowering standards of living in order to make the necessary changes.

Yes it is only common sense we are on a collision course to the end of this planet.
