Effects of increased CO2 on the American west, Exxon internal memo, 1979:
[quote]
• The southwest states would be hotter, probably by more than 3 °F, and drier.
• The flow of the Colorado River would diminish and the southwest water shortage would become much more acute.

• Most of the glaciers in the North Cascades and Glacier National Park would be melted. There would be less of a winter snow pack in the Cascades, Sierras, and Rockies, necessitating a major increase in storage reservoirs.
• Marine life would be markedly changed. Maintaining runs of salmon and steelhead and other subarctic species in the Columbia River system would become increasingly difficult.

As these impacts occur before our eyes, remember that Exxon was on notice over forty years ago, then covered it up.
