There's been a 30% reduction in phytoplankton in the Indian Ocean in the past few decades, an exponential increase in methane emissions from Arctic permafrost, and so on and so forth.

The advantage in knowing the future is in profiting from coming changes. If buying real estate is impossible for warming enthusiasts, maybe they could lobby governments and organizations to do so instead. If India is destined to lose farmland, maybe it would benefit by owning options on farmland in Siberia?
