Is there any way someone could assess the risks and benefits of global warming to life in Alberta?

There is no real life in Alberta, merely existence. But you knew that.

Alberta will be a warm grassland filled with swamplike terrain - that's the plus. The negative?
This will only last for 4000 years.

There is historical evidence of grape vines in Nova Scotia.
They are from the mid evil warming period, when the British Isles had a wine export economy/
It lasted 3 centuries and al conveniently ignores it.

Yes a team of scientists could assess the situation.

It is pretty vague, and undetermined in the IPCC assessment report. The information is at pages 887 - 892.

I think an awful lot would depend upon what you DO in Alberta. Global Warming might be good for Agriculture- but bad for Hunting. Good for Tourism- but bad for Wildlife. Good for Campers- but bad for Skiers. Good for Businesses- but bad for Environmentalists. ...It all depends on WHERE one stands in respects to the Natural World & it's impact on YOUR life... It's a BIG, & very complicated set of issues...

Get a gas detector to measure the CO2 and have it calibrated . Now remember that most of the CO2 is on the ground. That is why CO2 is used as an extinguisher to smother fires.

Yes.
All you have to do is have the money to hire your own panel of "experts" to give you the answer you want to hear.
It helps if you can hire a famous politician or two to agree and support you and the others in the answer.
