Not exact matches

Anthropogenic CO2 emissions are presently increasing every year at an accelerating rate, and it is extremely unlikely that humanity will collectively do what is necessary to not only stop that growth in CO2 emissions, but reverse it, and then reduce emissions by 80 percent or more within 5 to 10 years, which is what mainstream climate scientists say is needed to avoid the worst outcomes of anthropogenic global warming.

This kind of forecast doesn't depend too much on the models at all — it is mainly related to the climate sensitivity which can be constrained independently of the models (i.e. via paleo - climate data), moderated by the thermal inertia of the oceans and assuming the (very likely) continuation of CO2 emissions at present or accelerated rates.

Hence, the rate of global carbon dioxide emissions continues to accelerate.

I suspect we will continue the accelerated emission of CO2 courtesy of China and India, the rate of emission won't remain constant at all.

[18] The report determines that manmade greenhouse gas emissions will accelerate sea - level rise, increase the intensity and frequency of extreme weather, and warm the planet at an unsustainable rate, adversely affecting everything from human and ecosystem health to transportation, forestry, and agriculture.

It is recognised by the IPCC, and anyone with at least two brain cells still connected to a supply of oxygen, that there has been a vastly accelerated rate of growth in human emissions since around 1960.

A new study published in the journal Science revealed that CO2 emissions are accelerating the rate of sea ice loss in the arctic.

Mahindra's challenge is the first of what will be multiple «Summit Challenges» that aim to accelerate greenhouse gas reductions at a rate that will ensure worldwide emissions start trending downward no later than 2020 — a goal that must be met to prevent dangerous temperature rise.

All serious trends that will, hopefully, further accelerate China's rate of greenhouse gas emissions reductions.

The loud divergence between sea - level reality and climate change theory — the climate models predict an accelerated sea - level rise driven by the anthropogenic CO2 emission — has been also evidenced in other works such as Boretti (2012a, b), Boretti and Watson (2012), Douglas (1992), Douglas and Peltier (2002), Fasullo et al. (2016), Jevrejeva et al. (2006), Holgate (2007), Houston and Dean (2011), Mörner 2010a, b, 2016), Mörner and Parker (2013), Scafetta (2014), Wenzel and Schröter (2010) and Wunsch et al. (2007) reporting on the recent lack of any detectable acceleration in the rate of sea - level rise.

The rate, of course, will depend on how much we end up emitting, but every indication is that we will follow an emission pathway that will lead to accelerated sea level rise.

Both contribute to rising sea levels... The rate, of course, will depend on how much [CO2] we end up emitting, but every indication is that we will follow an emission pathway that will lead to accelerated sea level rise.»

Yet the BAU growth of human emission tonnes actually accelerated to a 13.2 % annual rate for the 10 years ending 2013.

It should be noted that the rate of emissions absorption by the environment has increased rapidly and is accelerating (accelerating is a popular word for some reason).

Indeed: — Absence of accelerating warming — Existence of 30 years long cooling periods [1880 — 1910] then [1940 to 1970]-- Similitude of warming rates (about +0,15 °C per decade) during both [1910 — 1940] & [1970 to 2000] periods, whereas anthropogenic CO2 emissions have been multiplied by 5 here between, formally disproved AGW theory and IPCC claims.

P.S.... Don't forget to mention that GHG emissions are rising at an exponentially accelerating rate because of the catalyzation of industrial infrastructure in the developing world.

The rate of increase in carbon dioxide concentrations accelerated over recent decades along with fossil fuel emissions.

It will also confirm the accelerated rate of change for impacts such as sea - level rise, the steady retreat of Arctic sea ice and quickened melting of ice sheets and glaciers, as well as offer more detail on scenarios that will shape international negotiations over both short - term and long - term greenhouse gas emissions, including how long «business as usual» can be sustained without dangerous risk.

In fact, if we continue on our current path of high heat - trapping emissions, the region is projected to see forest fires during June and July at two to three times its current rate.2, 6 Some 1 billion metric tons of organic matter and older - growth trees could burn7, 15 — accelerating the release of stored carbon and creating a dangerous global warming amplification or feedback loop.5, 14

What's really rather remarkable, is that since 2000, the rates at which CO2 emissions and concentrations are increasing have accelerated.

Rather, it rapidly accelerates the problem, since global emissions are increasing at a substantial rate such that generation D would be kept below some crucial climate threshold, but delay would mean that they would pass that threshold.

Trenberth still relates the effect from CO2 based on 100ppmv causing an increase of 0.6 °C but does not subtract the 0.5 °C of natural warming as recovery from the LIA that has nothing to do with CO2 emissions therefore producing an effect six times too high for the effect from increased CO2 Trenberth is not aware that CO2 is not increaseing at an accelerated rate as predicted by Hansen but at a near linear rate averaging 2.037 ppmv / year so by 2100 the concentration will not be as predicted by the IPCC as per scenario A1 but merely reach a level of 573.11 ppmv by 2100, This is only in the case that CO2 increase is maintained but this may not happen as the rate appears to be slowing down with the average rate for the past 5 years being lower than the rate for the past ten years.

The oil sands, even in the worst case (assuming constant production rates of coal, gas and conventional oil, with accelerated bitumen production), will only contribute a small proportion, about 3 %, to fossil - fuel emissions over this century.
