    It is very dimple. We are not willing to change our lifestyles to reduce emissions. That means we will only change as forced to by lack of fossil fuels. That is not a good prospect. Some parts of the world population will suffer more than others. Expect world population levels to drip to pre industrial revolution numbers as supplies run out.
