catastrophic effects of global warming are at risk of occurring and not a certainty does not negate the harm persons suffer from actions that increase the likelihood, extent, and severity of such future impacts.

catastrophic effects from sea - level rise and other outcomes
of global warming.»

global warming and carbon footprints, so much so that it's easy to forget that until quite recently few thought it was even possible that the actions
of our species could have a potentially
catastrophic effect on the Earth's climate.

global warming.

effect of global warming, namely massive, continent - wide, intense, persistent drought, could begin at any time and have
catastrophic effects on agriculture, leading to widespread famine within a few years.
In 2011, the
Global Warming Policy Foundation's website ran the headline «900 + Peer - Reviewed Papers Supporting Skepticism
Of «Man - Made» Global Warming (AGW) Alarm,» listing more than 900 papers which, according to the GWPF, refute «concern relating to a negative environmental or socio - economic effect of AGW, usually exaggerated as catastrophic.&raqu

In short, since 1997 there has been neither any
global warming nor any enhancement
of the greenhouse
effect to cause it in the first place, and with no possible correlation between increased CO2 emissions and
global warming; there is simply no scientific basis for the for the ludicrous concept that fossil fuel derived CO2 emissions are or could even cause
catastrophic global warming!
You don't have to doubt the
catastrophic anthropogenic
global warming theory to know that there are key variables that have important, measurable
effects on world temperatures at these kind
of timescales — ocean cycles come to mind immediately — which he has left out.
Since the proportions in Australia deeply concerned about the possibly
catastrophic effects of anthropogenic
global warming (however much
warming there actually is) are probably about the same as in the USA, how is it that President Trump can ignore something in his country that no one in ours seems to be able to do?
To prevent
catastrophic global warming human greenhouse gas emission must cease, but this will also end the aerosol cooling
effect and the full heating
effect of our «Faustian bargain» will be revealed.
If the countries make good on their pledges, they will dramatically reduce the emissions scientists link to
global warming, but not enough to hold temperatures to levels scientists say are needed to minimize risks
of drought, flooding and other
catastrophic effects.
It's very clear (thanks to Steve M, Willis etc) that there are issues with both but given the current hyped claim by the «
warmers» that the past
effects of man - caused
global warming have largely been masked by the
warming of the oceans and that unless we reduce CO2 emissions now that we won't be able to mitigate future
global warming when this «stored heat» eventually comes back out
of the oceans and leads to
catastrophic effects, I'm very interested in getting to the punchline
of this debate on SSTs.
To stop
catastrophic natural
global cooling (CNGC) we need to pump out all the CO2 we can as a «precaution» to mitigate some
of the
effects of cold — which are much worse than the
effects of warm.
No
catastrophic global warming either, so CO2 levels have only the smallest
of effects on
global temperature — H2O vapour is the major GHG.
The main evidence for
catastrophic anthropogenic
global warming (CAGW), the principal alleged adverse
effect of human emissions
of carbon dioxide (CO2), is climate models built by CAGW supporters in a field where models with real predictive power do not exist and can not be built with any demonstrable accuracy beyond a week or two because climate and weather are coupled non-linear chaotic systems.
Climate Science however was established with the premise that humans are having a
catastrophic effect on the climate, primarily by forcing
global warming through the emission
of ACO2, and charged with the mission
of confirming it.
I am a
global warming skeptic, not a denier, and part
of the difference is that it's not an either / or between no
effects from
warming and the
catastrophic vision
of Al Gore.
In
effect Kaya misdirects the reader to believe that all CO2 emissions are anthropogenic, thus setting the agenda for his fallacious and untrue argument, independent
of the premiss «CO2 causes
catastrophic global warming».
The prophecy
of Anthropogenic
Global Warming yielding trillions
of dollars in redistributive change will have a
catastrophic effect on human relationships, island stability, and the climate in diverse societies.
E.g., research assumes greenhouse gas emissions cause
warming without explicitly stating humans are the cause»... carbon sequestration in soil is important for mitigating
global climate change» (4a) No position Does not address or mention the cause
of global warming (4b) Uncertain Expresses position that human's role on recent
global warming is uncertain / undefined «While the extent
of human - induced
global warming is inconclusive...» (5) Implicit rejection Implies humans have had a minimal impact on
global warming without saying so explicitly E.g., proposing a natural mechanism is the main cause
of global warming»... anywhere from a major portion to all
of the
warming of the 20th century could plausibly result from natural causes according to these results» (6) Explicit rejection without quantification Explicitly minimizes or rejects that humans are causing
global warming»... the
global temperature record provides little support for the
catastrophic view
of the greenhouse
effect» (7) Explicit rejection with quantification Explicitly states that humans are causing less than half
of global warming «The human contribution to the CO2 content in the atmosphere and the increase in temperature is negligible in comparison with other sources
of carbon dioxide emission»»
The resulting computer simulation is the basis for predicting the
catastrophic effects of increasing AGHG on
global warming.

Written by thousands
of science, policy, and economics experts from around the world, the UN International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports represent a synthesis
of existing climate research knowledge, focusing on the evidence
of a
warming climate («virtually certain»), the
global impacts, and the ways we might avert its most
catastrophic effects.
