Since 1850, CO2 levels rose, as did the «globally and annually averaged land and sea surface temperature anomaly» (for what it's worth), but nobody knows whether or not the increase in CO2 had anything whatsoever to do with the warming.

It should say something like «Although CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere have risen in line with earlier projections, globally - averaged temperature observations have risen less than projected and are currently at or below the low end of the range in past IPCC assessments.»

Some locations, such as Brest, have measured a very slight acceleration in sea - level rise in the late 1800s or early 1900s, but globally averaged coastal sea - level rise has not accelerated since the 1920s.

Research published in Nature recommends that, globally, a third of oil reserves, half of gas reserves, and over 80 percent of current coal reserves should remain unused from 2010 to 2050, in order to keep average global temperatures from rising no more than two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.

As it turns out, estimates of globally averaged sea level rise in the 20th century are irrelevant since Tuvalu's local sea level change is very different from the globally averaged change.

The thermometers out there (even the ones next to AC exhausts in the summer or heated buildings in the winter) tell us that the «globally and annually averaged land and sea surface temperature» has not risen over more than a decade (in fact it has cooled slightly).

These feedbacks are the primary source of uncertainty in how much the earth will warm (side note: the question that most climate scientists who study the forcing due to CO2 try to answer is, how much will the long - term globally averaged surface temperature of the earth rise due to an rapid rise of CO2 to twice its industrial level, that is, 270 ppm to 540 ppm; it is currently about 380 last time I checked, and rising at ~ 3ppm / year, although this rate of change appears to be accelerating).

A positive feedback will re-inforce the trend and cause surface temperature (globally / temporally averaged, of course) to rise even faster than it would have without the feedback.
