If we had global warming I think it WOULD be a problem because if it got warmer, people that don’t like rain will start to move to places that previously had rain but now don’t… That could be bad if more and more people start moving to Vancouver and if the population becomes more and more dense that could be bad, but if more and more people start spreading out in B.C. then more people could fit into an even bigger area.
