The real question is, if you accept the premise that humans can affect global climate, what 'temperature' (year) should it be set at? 1990? 1800? 1200?

Wouldn't warming open more fertile land in the arctic and antarctic regions?

No. He's got a perfectly valid point. The earth has warmed 1 degree since 1900. No one disputes that. This warming is causing all kinds of disasters (see Kerry and Gore speeches re: WMD last week).
Therefore, these disastrous effects would not take place if we returned to 1900 temps by cooling the earth 1 degree. I didn't realize 1900 was such a great year for weather.
