Scientific consensus is that warming under 2 degrees c could be good, warming over that is bad.
There's no such consensus. There is a consensus (which may be more political than scientific in nature) that below two degrees is somewhat safe, globally and on average (locally, not necessarily; ask the island nations of the Pacific). And my impression is that more recent research has suggested that two degrees may be worse than previously though.
Naively extrapolating, by 2060 solar power should be 20x cheaper, so -- we should still be able to move most of the economy onto clean energy even without subsidies long before we reach dangerous levels of warming.
