Global warming, Earth dying?

I have just read an article last week on global warming. What if our earth's temperature increases and what will happen. I have been wondering this for the past week, and after some searching through the net, I have found this site:

Rather intriguing and sad at the same time.

It says that:
If global climate increases 1 oC, Fresh water lost from 1/3 of the world's surface; Ice-free sea absorbs more heat and accelerates global warming; Low lying coastlines flooded.

My opinion: Mind you, now our global temperature has increased to 0.74oC compared to temperature 5000 years ago !!! Destruction has just begun...... London's recent snow storm, Ice melting in the North Pole..............

If global climate increases 2 oC, Europeans dying of heatstroke; Forests ravaged by fire; Stressed plants beginning to emit carbon rather than absorbing it; A third of all species face extinction.

My opinion: I must say that we just had towns devastated by wildfires that continued to burn across vast areas in Australia. Forget the arson attack! Without that kind of once-in-a-century heatwave, and a combination of high winds, gusts and low humidity, it would not created a perfect storm scenario for the fires.

If global climate increases 3 oC, Carbon release from vegetation and soils speeds global warming; Death of the Amazon rainforest; Super-hurricanes hit coastal cities; Starvation in Africa.

My opinion: China just have drought this recent winter. Starvation in Africa has been long going. Gush.

If global climate increases 4 oC, Runaway thaw of permafrost makes global warming unstoppable; Much of Britain made uninhabitable by severe flooding; Mediterranean region abandoned.

My opinion: What will happen to Malaysia? My beloved country?

If global climate increases 5 oC, Methane from ocean floor accelerates global warming; Ice gone from both poles; Human migrate in search of food and try vainly to live like animals off the land.

My opinion: I guess most lands on this earth are now underwater?? Where will the rest of the human beings live??

If global climate increases 6 oC, Life on Earth ends with apocalyptic storms, flash floods, hydrogen sulphide gas and methane fireballs racing across the globe with the power of atomic bombs; only fungi survive.

My opinion: Does this means that we, human, animal, plants and everything on this earth are gone????? This is so scary. Now is 2009 and after 100 years of technology driven humans designing ever super products to help mankind to being lazy, we are actually pushing our mother earth nearer to "death"!

Do something everyone! Start making garbage enzyme, use less energy, save water, use less chemical products, plant more trees, use more organic products and eat organics.......... and the main point is, DON'T WASTE !! Just 1 tiny little effort 1 person a day, will deliberately saving our mother earth.

Save our Earth for our children.
because
We are merely borrowing our Mother Earth from our children.
