...cus like I hear that and, well, you see the cover image. international-community-1international-community-2

Is it just that so much more of the world is underdeveloped (overexploited) and it's just raw statistics? I guess I could see that explanation. But. Also. I've been to Pheonix.

I think it's more about how temperate areas will become only slightly more unlivable whereas areas already prone to extreme temps will have it worse. Most of the world's developed countries are in temperate zones.

Even this isn't true. Areas closer to the poles are warming (and will warm) faster than ones close to the equator. And Atlantic Europe will cool as the Gulf Stream weakens.
