Climate increase 0. 6 degrees and in the next 50-100 years 2-3 degrees increase. There is more growth in rice in carbon dioxide environment, good for plant growth.

In general, it causes plants to grow more and produce more pollen. More co2 means 30% increase in wheat and soybeans and 10% increase in corn. Corn disease in 70s and then a few droughts and floods and other climates events. As temp changes, there is a shift in species meaning that where we used to catch species we have to catch somewhere else now, ocean acid affects the fish species.
