There isn't scientific consensus on this. In fact science says the opposite about crop-bearing. For example, science tells us that the earth is much "greener" as a result of more concentrated CO2 levels. Plants love it.

Humankind is observably tremendously better off today than it ever has been, after warming. And, there is no reason to believe that the science that advanced this knowledge about warming will suddenly stop and cower in the face of addressing it. At least one Nobel prize winner has advanced a simple, obvious idea about how to improve sea levels... seed clouds over Antarctica.

So, now, it's interesting; you have an apocalyptic prediction about the end of humanity with little scientific basis (that is the history of humankind BTW, we always predict apocalypse), and you are mad at the Christians for not believing in it and thus not behaving in the way that you approve of.

That is *exactly* how they feel about you not believing their apocalyptic predictions...!

(Now I await an explosion of anger at the challenge of your obviously correct world view, please don't disappoint.)
