Well the thing is that there are other countries and other countries may be disproportionately affected by climate change, for example: "Around the Mediterranean, freshwater availability will drop by almost twice as much at 2 degrees as at 1.5 — 17 percent versus 9 percent," or "But even getting up to 2 degrees, 'tropical regions like West Africa, South-East Asia, as well as Central and northern South America are projected to face substantial local yield reductions, particularly for wheat and maize.'
