I don't know about you, but I don't live in a coral reef.
Regardless of whether you're genuinely this ignorant on the matter, or just being deliberately obtuse, I'm not sure whether it's worth my while elaborating. If it's the former, please, go and read the wikipedia page on
biodiversity and educate yourself.
Make up your mind. If the oceans are heating up and releasing the carbonic acid in them as carbon dioxide, that's making them less acidic. Here are the two I believe that you were thinking of, because this one doesn't make any sense:
Yep that was a derp on my part, I was thinking faster than I typed.
potentially choking countless fish that I still don't care in the slightest about.
Again, if you don't know why you should care about them, you ought to leave the debate.
Anyway, the methane isn't frozen at the bottom of the ocean; you're thinking of the methane predicted to exist under permafrost, such as Siberia, Antarctica, etc.
Huh. I guess all those scientists studying methane clathrates off the coast of Mexico are wasting their time then.
I'll just leave this here.
In any case it doesn't matter, methane trapped under permafrost that melts as the climate warms will have the same effect as methane that escapes from oceanic clathrates. Oh and for the record, carbon in the methane trapped in ice far exceeds (by conservative estimate) the amount of carbon contained in all the other fossil fuels that we know of. But yeah, livestock. That's important too.
More degrees in some places, less in others... and you're really grossly oversimplifying the weather, there. The Sahara is a champ at evaporating water, but it never got the memo about the 'more precipitation' business, and could probably appreciate some of that. Some places would do better with more rain, some better with less. This doesn't have to be a bad thing.
I think you're being optimistic and probably equally simplistic about the effects of weather. A few degrees less or more here or there doesn't have to be a bad thing, but you have to understand that you will have no control over it. Too bad if it IS a bad thing though.
My conclusions; grumble, pay maybe more for power bills (maybe), continue not eating seafood. Life goes on, and we've survived through so much in so many places as humanity that it's honestly a joke to think that we'd be this badly affected by changing weather, especially considering all the modern technology we've had that our ancestors have lacked (and considering the hellholes some people have happily called home for centuries or millenia, such as freezing deserts with the only water around being poisoned with arsenic... we can probably deal with some more flooding.) It's not worth stopping the progress that's lifting millions into a brighter future.
You don't have to stop progress. That is a gross exaggeration. No one is telling anybody to go back to living in caves and hunting for food with spears and arrows.
If anything, we are encouraging progress by supplying a demand for environmentally-conscious engineering. You can say 'who cares' but that is a near-sighted view. Short time gain with long term pain, in general. Even if CO2 turned out not to be dangerous, the way we use fossil fuels at the moment is unsustainable.
As for coping with 'a little more rain', again you clearly are not thinking too hard about what you're saying. Did you hear about the flooding in Thailand that killed dozens of people? Well, you didn't know them so who cares about that, but what you might care about is the factories that were destroyed, driving up the price of all sorts of commodities from rice to hard drives that directly affect your wallet. Extreme weather events like the Thai flooding are predicted to become more frequent and one way or another that is going to affect the price you pay for your precious first-world goods.
Hey, you never know, it might even happen in Tennessee to a bunch of Americans that I don't care in the slightest about.
