Do You Believe In Global Warming?
Very often, when I talk to the public or the media about “global warming”, they ask me if I believe in global warming. This unfortunate question is apparently very popular among scientists as well. And I say ‘unfortunate’ because when we are dealing with a scientific problem ‘believing’ has no place. In science we either ‘prove’ or ‘disprove’. We ‘believe’ only when we cannot possibly prove a t...
متن کاملDoes the projected pathway to global warming targets matter?
Since the ‘Paris agreement’ in 2015 there has been much focus on what a +1.5 ◦C or +2 ◦C warmer world would look like. Since the focus lies on policy relevant global warming targets, or specific warming levels (SWLs), rather than a specific point in time, projections are pooled together to form SWL ensembles based on the target temperature rather than emission scenario. This study uses an ensem...

The role of General Circulation Models (GCMs) has become predominantly important as the practical interest in regional impacts from anthropogenic greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) grows. This first report documents the quality of GCMs as a tool for describing and predicting ‘global warming’ and the related geographical pattern of climate change from the CO2 added to Earth’s atmosphere.

متن کامل#430 - Global Warming, Part 2: Human Consequences Of Global Warming
As we saw last week, the worldwide scientific community has reached consensus that global warming is inevitable if humans continue to dump "greenhouse gases" into the atmosphere at anything like present rates. Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and a few others. These gases act like the glass covering a greenhouse, letting sunlight in but...
