1/6. Sea-level trends have scarcely changed from when the CO2 level was 110 ppmv lower.

2/6. Climate change has not worsened droughts, and elevated CO2 makes plants more water-efficient and drought-resilient.

3/6. Warming temperatures prevent far more climate-related deaths than they cause, because cold causes far more deaths than heat.

4/6. Climate change is not causing storms to worsen.

5/6. Rising CO2 levels are dramatically beneficial for crops, which is one of the major reasons that catastrophic famines are fading from living memory, for the first time in human history.

And with those changes:
* sea level rise
* increase in wet bulb temps during heat waves
* intensification of weather patterns
* crop stress in some regions
6/6. The huge benefits of elevated CO2 for crops have been settled science for over a century, in the field of agronomy -- a rigorous experimental science, which, unlike "climate science," has not devolved into a subspecialty of PoliSci.
