OK, let us suppose that the earth is getting warmer and CO2 is increasing.  Does this necessarily mean a warmer planet require politicians to run around like Chicken Little that it's going to be a disaster? Consider several other equally possible scenarios :

• More mild temperate regions -- As the earth warms, it's likely that most of the warming will be towards the poles.  As this happens, the force of weather driven by high and low pressure interactions will lessen as the difference between the highs and lows will be less, not more.  It seems milder winds and weather is NOT something that should not be fought, but something that should be promoted.  
• Warmer oceans means more humidity (water vapor) -- This may mean deserts that have not seen rain for eons may see the return of rains.  Lakes and rivers long dried up could reform and new more dynamic ecosystems could evolve from rather static desert wastelands -- Anyone recall the  Hanging Gardens of Baylon?  
• Melting Ice caps -- The water to fill desert lakes and rivers has to come from somewhere.  The question may not be will the ocean levels rise if the ice caps melt -- rather the question should be will any melting at the ice caps be sufficient to fill these desert lakes, or will instead we see ocean sea levels drop?  
• The reality is as there is more water vapor in the air, more, not less, artic ice may form.  Currently, much of the artic is too cold for much snow to fall.  As the temperature warms, air absorbs more water vapor, which may be transported over the poles and deposited as more, not less, snow.  The artic ice pack may get deeper.  It's possible that the same will happen in the high mountain ranges around the globe.
• One can't just create CO2 out of nothing so it can't increase forever.   There is a limited amount of free carbon that one might add to the environment thru burning of fossil fuels.  One also can't create a world wide renewable energy system without a lot more CO2 to feed and grow the plants necessary to make the renewable energy.  So more, not less, CO2 seems what is needed. 

Bottomline, before everyone runs around to prevent global warming and reduce CO2, perhaps it would be a good idea to determine if more global warming and more CO2 isn't really what is needed for the world to prosper, not less.  It's not like the globe at one time didn't have more CO2 in it and was also warmer.
