Sentences with phrase «stabilisation levels of»

The topics addressed include critical thresholds and key vulnerabilities of the climate system, impacts on human and natural systems, socioeconomic costs and benefits of emissions pathways, and technological options for meeting different stabilisation levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

So any country whose government acknowledged in 2009 that CO2 emissions must reach net zero by the time temperatures reach the target stabilisation level of 2 °C should be 10 % of the way there now.

Not exact matches

Asian stock markets rose to their highest level in more than four months on Thursday, helped by optimism in the global banking sector and hopes of stabilisation in the China's economy.

This is the fundamental principle behind The 2 Meal Day Intermittent Fasting Plan and why so many people have had success with both weight loss, muscle gain, stabilisation of energy levels and resetting hunger hormones.

There was a conference held at the begining of this year that went over this sort of thing, it was subtitled «Avoiding Dangerous Climate Change» and you can find the presentation [slides] that were presented at http://www.stabilisation2005.com/programme.html There's a lot of interesting things about possible thresholds, stabilisation levels for CO2 and emission reduction pathways and the potential costs.

As with the entire Golf range, the new GTD will feature class - leading levels of safety with ABS, ESP (Electronic Stabilisation Programme) and seven airbags, including for the first time a knee airbag, all standard.

Also, as with the entire Golf range, the new GTI features class - leading levels of safety with ABS, ESP (Electronic Stabilisation Programme) and seven airbags, including for the first time a knee airbag, all as standard.

Among the new standard features is a two axle air suspension with automatic self levelling, as well as Dynamic Damper Control and the latest update of the Integral Active Steering system, along with the first electromechanically driven Dynamic Drive roll stabilisation system.

Limited and early analytical results from integrated analyses of the costs and benefits of mitigation indicate that they are broadly comparable in magnitude, but do not as yet permit an unambiguous determination of an emissions pathway or stabilisation level where benefits exceed costs.

Nevertheless, climate sensitivity is part of the puzzle, and it particularly matters if you are interested in stabilisation scenarios, since it indicates what a particular equilibrium CO2 level will mean for equilibrium climate.

30 more years of business - as - usual will make it impossible to keep temperatures from rising beyond Eemian levels (see here for some discussion of stabilisation scenarios), and decisions (on infrastructure, power stations, R&D, etc.) that are being made now will determine the emissions for decades to come.

The timing and level of mitigation to reach a given temperature stabilisation level is earlier and more stringent if climate sensitivity is high than if it is low.

That would likely mean that also the official UN climate goal of limiting the average world temperature rise to no more than 2 degrees Celsius — a target linked to 450 ppm CO2 equivalent stabilisation scenarios (practically ambitious, theoretically weak)-- will eventually lead to many meters of global sea level rise.

RCP4.5 is a «stabilisation scenario» where policies are put in place so atmospheric CO2 concentration levels off around the middle of the century, though temperatures do not stabilise before 2100.

Many don't get this — but it goes for both the temperature targets of ≤ 2 degrees (UN, G8, G21) and ≤ 1.5 degrees (wiser people) and the internationally accepted maximum GHG concentration level of 450 ppm — and for the CO2 stabilisation concentration level of 350 ppm (Hansen and many other climate scientists): if we know «2» is the right answer, we're not that clever when we fail to comprehend 1 +1 is the logical route to getting there.]

For example, stabilisation at 550 ppm (resulting in a temperature increase relative to pre-industrial levels of nearly 2 °C) only reduces the number of people adversely affected by climate change by 30 - 50 % (Arnell, 2006).

Australia will unconditionally reduce our emissions by 5 % below 2000 levels by 2020, and by up to 15 % by 2020 if there is a global agreement which falls short of securing atmospheric stabilisation at 450 ppm CO2 - eq and under which major developing economies commit to substantially restrain emissions and advanced economies take on commitments comparable to Australia's.

In a «450 Stabilisation Case», which describes a notional pathway to long - term stabilisation of the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at around 450 parts per million, global emissions peak in 2012 and then fall sharply below 2005 leStabilisation Case», which describes a notional pathway to long - term stabilisation of the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at around 450 parts per million, global emissions peak in 2012 and then fall sharply below 2005 lestabilisation of the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at around 450 parts per million, global emissions peak in 2012 and then fall sharply below 2005 levels by 2030.

Token reference to a 1.5 ° C stabilisation level is meaningless to Africa as long as we remain so far from targets that are consistent with having half a chance of remaining below 2 °.

The objective of Article 2 of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (United Nations, 1992) is to achieve stabilisation of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.

What would such levels of climate change imply in terms of greenhouse gas stabilisation concentrations and emission pathways required to achieve such levels?
