Since increase in temperature leads to an increase in precipitation, global warming creates extreme storms and overall extreme weather.
So, the original theory of AGW would have produced warmer air coming from the polar regions which would have created a smaller temperature difference between systems, and thus would have created fewer extreme weather events, not more of them.
These include increased average land and ocean temperatures that lead to reduced snowpack levels, hydrological changes, and sea level rise; changing precipitation patterns that will create both drought and extreme rain events; and increasing atmospheric CO2 that will contribute to ocean acidification, changes in species composition, and increased risk of fires.
It is the one region where a temperature rise will create extreme and irreversible positive feedback.
THE «extreme» cold has seen Iguanas frozen solid in Florida, alligators in a state of cryogenic freeze, sharks washed up in Cape Cod «stranded due to cold shock», the coldest Super Bowl on record, Niagara Falls frozen over, a thermometer in the world's coldest village breaking as temperatures plunge to -62 C, the lowest temperature ever recorded in Bangladesh, frozen crops creating a food crisis in Europe, even a mass die - off of sea creatures as UK ocean temps plunged 1 - 3 degrees centigrade, cold temperatures smashed across Saskatchewan's central and south regions in the spring of April, and the list of non-heat «extremes» goes on.
Which is all to say, that while humanity will adapt to a climate changed world is true, there is no doubt that climate change will create, in comparison to today, let alone a pre-industrial, lower population world, a world that is less bountiful, prone to more extremes of temperature and weather in many places, less fecund — and since we're talking about human adaptation, more difficult to live in and less conducive to human civilization.
