Bill Hare of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (Germany) predicts that with a 2°C increase in warming above pre-industrial levels as many as 5.5 billion people will be exposed to crop losses resulting from climatic changes.
At around a 3°C increase the changes could be catastrophic with whole regions becoming unsuitable for producing food and water stress exacerbated.
With a third of the worlds' population living in low lying areas less than 50 miles of the sea, sea level rises will cause massive displacement of peoples.

Clock Already Ticking
The world food shortage and species extinction clocks may already be ticking.

Reduced evaporation rates effect cloud formation and rain patterns and so far global dimming is thought to have been responsible for at least the Ethiopian famines of the 1980s
