not the most well read dude, but my understanding is that as there is more energy in the atmosphere, there will be more unstable weather patterns - and will lead to crop failures.
this will most likely hit the global south and nations that are less developed (exploited nations such as the global south) harder than the developed nations. people migrating because they can’t live in the deadly heat, or not having enough food, or something about florida going underwater (iirc they won’t insure houses in florida anymore because of global warming and rising sea temperatures.)
edit i don’t think people will want to lay down and die from the inhospitable environment, they will probably move - i don’t think looking at the death toll and saying “see there are less deaths from the climate therefore climate change is not significant” is a good form of analysis, it seems like a bit of a kneejerk reaction, that needs more inspection - like quality of life, crop failures, if you can go outside without heatstroke, these things are gradually ramped up on a scale
I have some friends who live in Florida and, due to work, have to go on the news and say that although Florida is being hit by climate change that it’s still a good place to buy a home. But, privately, they all know that shit is going down and it’s a terrible place to purchase a home.
For any comrades in Florida who expect to live longer than a decade or two, don’t do it.
Changes in the climate might decrease yields, however CO2 concentration directly increases them. This should recover 60% to over 100% (wheat increased, soybean fully recovered) of the losses due to climate change depending on the crop from 2000-2080 according to NASA.
So if you take the 50% loss of corn due to lack of moisture stated in your report, recovered by 60%. It should be ~20% decrease (time period probably starts from 2020s in the report, so this calculation is off), while wheat will increase by 10% overall according to NASA.
Farmers may switch to the more productive crops to compensate.
