Projected Global Warming
Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) increased global temperature 6.5 degrees in 50K Yrs. after releasing 12,000 gt of Carbon into the atmosphere, at .24/yr.
At the current rate of 10/yr we will release 12,000 gt in 1,200 yrs at 19.5 from 14.5 in 1950-1980. |
| The IPCC has stressed the need to keep global warming below 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) compared to pre-industrial levels in order to avoid some irreversible impacts.[22] With current policies and pledges, global warming by the end of the century is expected to reach about 2.8 °C (5.0 °F).[23] At the current greenhouse gas (GHG) emission rate, the emissions budget for staying below 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) would be exhausted by 2028.[24] |
| Result is a world similar to PETM. |
