The Coming «Instant
Planetary Emergency» How will
climate change affect the future of the planet?
This is OK when you can completely control the replicability of a situation (eg
changing the CO2 in a glass bottle) but rather more difficult in the case of the planet you are living on, when the inferences have to be made on the basis of both what happens in a glass bottle (physics) and what the observed behaviour of the unique subject (the
planetary climate system) has been in terms of recent observations and its geological history.
To stand the best chance of keeping the
planetary warming below an internationally agreed target of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit above preindustrial levels and thus avoiding the most dangerous effects of
climate change, the panel found, only about 1 trillion tons of carbon can be burned and the resulting gas spewed into the atmosphere.
Some international groups are helping to foster synergies, including the World Health Organization's recent conference on
Climate and Health, the Convention on Biological Diversity's initiative on Health and Biodiversity, the Lancet - Rockefeller Commission on

As Andy heads abroad for a conference on «
planetary emergencies», I'll be bringing you occasional updates from the consumptive heart of the nation's desert West, Las Vegas, where clean energy prophets and political luminaries are gathered to discuss how the imperatives of
climate change, fossil fuel scarcity and national security ought to reshape our energy future.
The key points of the paper are that: i) model simulations with 20th century forcings are able to match the surface air temperature record, ii) they also match the measured
changes of ocean heat content over the last decade, iii) the implied
planetary imbalance (the amount of excess energy the Earth is currently absorbing) which is roughly equal to the ocean heat uptake, is significant and growing, and iv) this implies both that there is significant heating «in the pipeline», and that there is an important lag in the
climate's full response to
changes in the forcing.
Since it reflects the capacity of the
climate system to absorb heat, it may be influenced by the
planetary albedo (sea - ice and snow) and ice - caps, which respond to temperature
changes.
It turned out things were far more nuanced (as he later said, «The Earth system may be less responsive in the warm times than it was in the cold times»), but in a field that had long mainly foreseen smooth curves for
planetary change with rising greenhouse gas levels, the result was a vital focus on the risks of abrupt
climate change.
