More likely our grandchildren will get to find out, and curse the name of Al Gore, who got the "powers that were" stampeding in the wrong direction. (even though he really just attempted to look like he was leading the herd).
Authorities shouldn't be stampeding in any direction. Even if the climate gets significantly hotter or cooler in the near to far future, people should have the freedom to do as they see fit because they are the most qualified to make those decisions. If a huge meteor or comet was to destroy the surface of the world a year to six months from now, I wouldn't trust any authority on the face of the earth to deal with it in a rational manner.

Authorities have built new observatories all over the planet to watch for NEAR’s.
Authorities have built a storage facility near the North Pole to keep seed stock in.
Authorities have built an entire underground city to house the ‘calamity government’.
It’s not what they would or are doing that worries me.
It’s what the general public will do.
