Worth a Watch
Posted by Dan Satterfield
Hat tip to Bob Henson at NCAR for spotting this video, produced with UN funding and based on the IPCC 5th Assessment report. It was made by the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme. I listened very carefully, and the science is spot on. Bob noted that it seems extremely unlikely that we can avoid a 2 degree C rise in temperature now, and unless some dramatic development in renewable energy comes along in the next decade, I believe he is absolutely right. We will be leaving our grandchildren a far different Earth.
