And still the scare stories keep coming. A paper in
Nature Geoscience, published “coincidentally” just before the collapsed
Copenhagen climate change conference, suggests that long-term
temperature feedbacks in response to warming induced by anthropogenic
CO2 emissions will be 30-50% higher than the already enormous estimates
of the UN’s climate panel.
The British authors said the “more-than-expected” warming would unfold over a matter of hundreds of years, rather than this century. The findings do not mean that the predictions for temperature rise by 2100, established notably by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), should be rewritten, they said.
