WARMING TO GLOBAL WARMING http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1227630173
...a group of global-warming experts, made up mainly of university economists and anthropologists, is pushing the notion that global warming might not be an unmitigated disaster, especially for certain northerly regions, such as Canada, Russia and Scandinavia. Leading the charge is Robert Mendelsohn, an economics professor at Yale University, who says the benefits of global warming for Canada - from a longer growing season to the opening up of shipping through the Northwest Passage - will outweigh the negative effects.
"You're lucky because you're a northern-latitude country, Mendelsohn says. "If you add it all up, it's a good thing for Canada."

It would appear this economics prof can't do the true math that everything is connected.

There will be nothing but chaos in the global warming future if people persist in thinking of the earth as disparate parts.
