Can we bury global warming?
When William Shakespeare took a breath, 280 molecules out of every million entering his lungs were carbon dioxide. Each time you draw breath today, 380 molecules per million are carbon dioxide. That portion climbs about two molecules every year. No one knows the exact consequences of this upsurge in the atmosphere’s carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration nor the effects that lie ahead as more and m...
متن کاملWhen Could Global Warming Reach 4°c? When Could Global Warming Reach 4°c?
The IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) assessed a range of scenarios of future greenhouse gas emissions without policies to specifically reduce emissions, and concluded that these would lead to an increase in global mean temperatures of between 1.4°C and 6.9°C by the end of the 21st Century, relative to pre-industrial. While much political attention is focussed on the potential for global warm...
متن کاملAssessing the impacts of global warming on forest pest dynamics
www.frontiersinecology.org © The Ecological Society of America T evolutionary history of insects predates that of modern forests, and forest ecosystems originated and evolved under substantial insect herbivore pressure (Farrell et al. 1992). In spite – or perhaps because – of their long-standing ecological association, most insects live in a benign, or even beneficial, relationship with their h...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) assessed a range of scenarios of future greenhouse-gas emissions without policies to specifically reduce emissions, and concluded that these would lead to an increase in global mean temperatures of between 1.6°C and 6.9°C by the end of the twenty-first century, relative to pre-industrial. While much political at...
متن کاملConsequences of carbon offset payments for the global forest sector
Long-term effects of policies to induce carbon storage in forests were projected with the Global Forest Products Model. Offset payments for carbon sequestered in forest biomass of $15–$50/t CO2e applied in all countries increased CO2 sequestration in world forests by 5–14 billion tons from 2009 to 2030. Limiting implementation to developed countries exported environmental damage from North to S...
