In both scenarios the current global sink deteriorates after 2030, and by 2070 (ΔT ~ 2.5 °C over pre-industrial) the terrestrial biosphere becomes an increasing carbon source (Figure 4.2; see also Scholze et al., 2006) with the concomitant risk of positive feedback, developments that amplify climate change.

He proposed a list of new tasks for the water research and management community: develop global water assessment capabilities on a par with the current IPCC assessments for climate; expand monitoring and models; introduce a regular reporting system similar to that of the IPCC; carry out a comprehensive freshwater biodiversity survey to act as a benchmark; provide technical tools such as databases, scenarios and conflict research to reconcile competing water uses; and expand the focus on local basics and watersheds to a global basis.

Abstract: An evaluation of analyses sponsored by the predecessor to the U.K. Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) of the global impacts of climate change under various mitigation scenarios (including CO2 stabilization at 550 and 750 ppm) coupled with an examination of the relative costs associated with different schemes to either mitigate climate change or reduce vulnerability to various climate - sensitive hazards (namely, malaria, hunger, water shortage, coastal flooding, and losses of global forests and coastal wetlands) indicates that, at least for the next few decades, risks and / or threats associated with these hazards would be lowered much more effectively and economically by reducing current and future vulnerability to those hazards rather than through stabilization.
