But warming will also decrease other extremes, for example, leading to fewer deaths from cold and less water scarcity.
Ten years ago, the EU and the US embraced biofuels as a way to combat global warming.
The Paris agreement, signed by 195 countries, is our last real chance of keeping global warming to less than 2ºC above pre-industrial levels.
Any increase in global temperature greater than 2ºC, scientists agree, risks triggering feedback loops that cause much greater warming and could render large parts of the planet uninhabitable.
For example, further warming would release large quantities of methane – a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide – from thawing Siberian permafrost, leading to more warming, more thawing, and more methane in the atmosphere.
Similarly, warming causes the loss of arctic ice, which means that less of the sun’s heat is reflected back rather than being absorbed by the ocean.
The American Meteorological Society promptly wrote to Pruitt saying that it is “indisputable” that CO2 and other greenhouse gases are the primary cause of global warming, and that it is “not familiar with any scientific institution with relevant subject matter expertise that has reached a different conclusion.”
And that is also true of activities that contribute to the highest risk in human history: global warming.
But one thing is clear: to prevent the planet’s temperature from rising by more than 2º Celsius relative to its preindustrial level, and thereby avoid runaway global warming, we need to leave the majority of our coal, oil, and gas assets undeveloped.
Insurers have created and sustained a perverse loop, whereby they facilitate projects that cause global warming while providing insurance against these projects’ adverse climate impact.
Global warming is set to put potable-water supplies under increasing strain – even as oceans rise and the intensity and frequency of storms and other extreme weather events increase.
The most serious is global warming.
Some suggest that, given the economic slowdown, we should put global warming on the backburner.
Global warming is a quintessential “public goods” problem.
The irony is that, with insufficient aggregate demand the major source of global weakness today, there is an alternative: invest in our future, in ways that help us to address simultaneously the problems of global warming, global inequality and poverty, and the necessity of structural change.
Climate scientists have warned for years that global warming caused by manmade emissions of greenhouse gases will generate more extreme storms.
He called for delays in reducing greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming, which in turn causes the energy of hurricanes to rise.
Manmade global warming raises not only air temperatures, but sea-surface temperatures as well.
But global warming will not be fixed by hypocritically closing a path out of poverty to the world’s poor.
A decade after the Great Recession began, economic recovery continued in 2017, and progress was made on issues like poverty, education, and global warming.
Given that bioplastics are produced from renewable or “bio-based” sources (cellulose, starch, and glucose) – and, in some cases, through microbial fermentation – they have a lower carbon footprint, contribute less to global warming, and biodegrade to small molecules.
There are smart ways to address global warming, through innovating downward the price of green energy; unfortunately, they are not pushed in the United Nations-sponsored climate negotiations.
But, without an international mechanism to compensate those most at risk of a warming planet, individual countries will weigh the trade-offs of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions differently.
Furnace CitiesCOPENHAGEN -- It’s possible to see, right now, what global warming will eventually do to the planet.
Of course, cities also will be hit by temperature increases from CO2, in addition to further warming from urban heat islands.
At the moment, we don’t hear much about the smartest choices when it comes to addressing global warming.
Global warming is an environmental, economic, scientific, and political problem of the first order, and one doubly difficult to address because its dangers lie decades in the future.
Circumstantial evidence does indeed point to our profligate burning of fossil fuels and perhaps also to its impact on global warming.
Numerical global climate models suggest that a doubling of the current atmospheric accumulation of CO2 will produce further warming of 3-5 degrees Celsius, perhaps as soon as 2050.
The consequences of this would be devastating: inland areas desiccated, low-lying coastal regions battered and flooded as polar ice melts and sea levels rise, and possibly further warming and a runaway greenhouse effect due to an increase in atmospheric water vapor.
