Fellas:

"Global Warming" would not be uniform over the globe. Some areas would get warmer and drier, some would get colder. If the Gulf Stream shuts down due to decreased salinity, it could put Great Britain and Northern Europe into a very cold world of hurt. Remember how far north those countries actually are....far more north than anyplace in the US except Alaska.

As far a "optimum climate", it all depends on the organism. Out here we have some reasonably high mountains. Every elevation has its own climate and things living in specific zones cannot exist at other levels. A Cactus does not do well at 10,000 feet, nor does a pine tree feel comfortable in an arid area. The concept of an overall optimum climate is meaningless.
