Is there any way we can speed up Global Warming to help the animals?

more CO2 helps plants but more evapotranspiration due to more warmth is bad for plants. More rain is good for plants except that it is predicted not to be more often but more sever storms so most of the rain is just going to run off (causing floods) and not soak in for the plants to use so the net effect in most places is expected to be more drying/drought. Yes some areas are going to be more hospitable (eg. Northern Canada) but just as many are going to be less hospitable (deserts/arid areas are expanding). Also there is the whole sea level rise problem that will cover much of the land with ocean and kill most coral reefs and the thousands of animals that live on them.
