Don't worry be happy!

Hey all! This post will be different!

To get into the right mood and to have the right background music I recommend you to start this video before you continue to read:

Are you curious what this (so far) weird post is about?
Okay, I won't let you wait longer:

I found a paper published by Katrin Rehdanz and David Maddison in 2005. In this paper they looked at the changing level of happiness that will be caused by the Global Evironmental Change. The changing pattern of temperature and precipitation are the chosen indicators in this survey. (The paper can be accessed online here.)

Overall Rehdanz & Maddison predict a changing distribution of happiness on a global scale.
The predicted overall effect will be that humans living in the high lines of latitude will be happier due to warmer winter, while humans living in lower lines of latitude will be less happy because of even hotter summer.
The surveylookd closely at 67 (mostly european) countries. Out of these countries Canada and the scandinavian Countries are the predicted "winners", while south & southeast european countries will lose most of their happiness.

So make sure you consider this scenario if you want to move abroad at one point in your life!
But please keep in mind that only the temperate and precipitation changes were taken into account. Other factors like changing frequencies of extreme weather events or whatever else you mind want to consider for yourself was left out!
