Reading many of the answers, it seems depressingly necessary to state that so far we've not been headed towards catastrophe, with ever-higher life expectancy, less poverty, and more education And we actually die less and less in climate-related disasters https://www.facebook.com/bjornlomborg/posts/374647437353599 …pic.twitter.com/29gY029yzG

Turns out he was right. If we had taken a small amount of action then we might have been on track to "fix climate change". We didn't and have been unable to fix it since. The problem has grown so much now there does not seem any chance of fixing it.
About those record crop yields due to slight warming and increased Co2 for photosynthesis...
Lets just hope that we are not too late to make the necessary changes now. Even then we will be most fortunate to keep global temps anomaly below 1.5C. Important to note the increases in extreme weather we are already experiencing at an increase of just 1.1C
To be fair, if they said there's about 40 or 50 years to fix the problem, it wouldn't even make the news.
