    warmer countries becoming unliveable.

    Just this is bad, very bad in so many ways. Even if you just mean large areas of Africa - where are the people going to go? The current political, economic, etc, etc of immigration will be nothing compared to that - right wing parties get a boost, stretched resources become overstretched, our food supply diminishes. But it won’t just be parts of Africa - southern Europe gets hit by brutal heatwaves now, that is only going to get worse and a lot of our food comes from Italy and Spain. They are some of largest sources of rice, the others are India, Pakistan and Burma, as long as the monsoons aren’t disrupted. If there’s any shortfall in rice production they’ll start reducing exports to feed their own people.

      Agree it’s bad. I just worry that JSO are taking the wrong approach in being abrasive instead of trying to win the argument.
