the average temperature increase in the last 100 years is only 2°F. How can such a small amount be impactful?

Not looking for a political argument. I need facts. I am in no way a climate change denier, but I had a conversation with someone who told me the average increase is only 2°F over the past 100 years. That doesn’t seem like a lot and would support the argument that the climate goes through waves of changes naturally over time.

I’m going to run into him tomorrow and I need some ammo to support the climate change argument. Is it the rate of change that’s increasing that makes it dangerous? Is 2° enough to cause a lot of polar ice caps to melt? I need some facts to counter his. Thanks!

Edit: spelling

at -3* boston was under a mile thick glacier, and water levels were so low you could walk across the english channel or the bering strait.

so if that’s your comparison between -3 and 0, think about what the difference between 0 and +3 looks like…
