Climate Science in a Nutshell #9: How Bad Could it Get? from Planet Nutshell on Vimeo.
My only comment is to draw your attention to the video's assumption that the 350 ppm CO2 target is widely accepted as the maximum necessary to avert catastrophic change. It's…

The New York Times put the news of 2014 being the warmest year on their front page, in the precious space known as "Above The Fold." But, the venerable paper of record continues to give credence to science denialists by calling them "skeptics," and continues to imply that there really is a debate…

Lol
What was the average temperature when there was no glaciers on earth? and if co2 is the culprit, why has Mars experienced global warming?
Charles, there is a lot of silica dust blowing around on Mars, yet there is not silicosis lung disease. Why not?
Idiot.
Wow....charles...your name doesn't even earn capitalization.... What point in time when the Earth didnt have glaciers? When it first formed?
And there is CO2 on Mars...but I think the answer to your stupid question has to do with the sun.
Look at the Mars Climate wikipedia
The end of this is a bit frustrating. The solution is apparently to "make good decisions". Well damn, I thought it was going to suggest bad decisions.
In other news, does anyone here like good music? Man I love good music...I don't like bad music, though. I find it unpleasant.
One excellent solution to future population concerns as well as alleviating many of the effects of potential global warming is the proposal for the construction of the "Trans Global Highway". The proposed Trans Global Highway would create a world wide network of standardized roads, railroads, water pipe lines, oil and gas pipelines, electrical and communication cables. The result of this remarkable, far sighted project will be global unity through far better distribution of resources, including heretofore difficult to obtain or unaccessible raw materials, fresh water, finished products and lower global transportation costs.
With greatly expanded global fresh water distribution, arid lands could be cultivated resulting in a huge abundance of global food supplies. The most conservative estimate is that with the construction of the Trans Global Highway, the planet will be able to feed several billion more people, using presently available modern farming technologies. With the present global population of just under 7 billion people and at the United Nations projection of population increase, the world will produce enough food surpluses to feed the expected increased population for several hundred years.
Thomas Robert Malthus's famous dire food shortage predictions of 1798 failed to take into consideration modern advances in farming, transportation, food storage and food abundance. Further information on the proposed Trans Global Highway can be found at www.TransGlobalHighway.com .
