Unfortunately most of the answers you are going to receive will be slanted with a great deal of rhetoric and fear mongering. Population studies have shown that the balance of temperature related deaths are not caused by heat but rather cold (Heat related mortality in warm and cold regions of Europe: observational study). So if human deaths are what you are concerned about, the global rise in temperature will likely be a benefit.
