Mark,
I read that whole article, and got lost and/or side-tracked in the 14,400+ comments that followed. Almost 2 hours of reading the same thing I have seen over and over.
When it comes to the specifics of what will happen with a 2 degree temperature change, the answer is always something along the lines of, "doom and horrible things." It reminds me of Monty Python's Holy Grail movie where a man is describing a horrible beast with big pointy teeth, and then they see the beast, and it's a little brown rabbit. LOL
I just want to know what exactly will happen, but unfortunately that aspect is not being discussed or published as widely as it should. If it's a sudden and dramatic change that causes an "end of days" scenario, people would probably be more keen to do something. So where is this doom and gloom? I'm open minded. Unfortunately, I am also realistic. It's going to happen, (the majority)people won't care, and no one is going to change.
Let's go back to one topic that is highly discussed. The price of gasoline. People are now saying they don't feel guilty going for a pleasure drive, or driving more. Dancing in the streets for $1.25 propane and $2.00 gasoline, for the most part... LOL
So it doesn't make anyone want to change because they are worried about the planet or long term future. They worry about themselves and their pocket book, because that is priority. It's not just corporate greed, it's personal greed of a society that has been brainwashed to be commercial consumers with a huge appetite. I don't expect anyone to take what I say as anything other than my opinion and what I see. Since I am effected daily with life changing results of the shale gas play, I do keep informed and interested in all of this. I almost have no choice.
