In my opinion, it's already too late. Mere humans will never beat nature and the younger ones among us will have to get used to the new normal in furure weather extremes. Locally it shouldn't make too much difference - it'll turn out to be like the south of England or northern France, growing more tender plants outside, etc - but spare a thought for those living in steep-sided valleys, near low-lying coasts or on flood-plains all over the world. They will see a big difference by 2050.

The best humanity can do is to learn to live with it and be even more determined to ensure that the temperature rise doesn't go above 2 degrees.
