As we live and farm on the land an average global temperature rise of 2 C can mean a local temperature of 3 C or more on the land. This would be the end of farming as we know it.
Colours on the chart indicate 2 C on the sea and most land is
​3 C or 4 C and the Arctic is 6 C.

"This would be the end of farming as we know it."
Absolute rubbish. If it was 3 degrees warmer here in the Uk it would make next to no difference to our farming industry. If anything, it would be a boost. Remember, cold kills crops, not a little bit of warmth.
