Climate Policy Insights from a Science and Technology perspective. Thursday, 22 October 2009. Climate Change Threats and Public Response. Humans are not well prepared to respond to dangers that require forethought. A potential explanation for the muted response of the public to the threats posed by climate change is put forward in an article ' When Our Brains Short-Circuit'. Such threats are in nature personal, imminent and require immediate response. In contrast, the modern dangers embodied in climate c...

Climate Change Priorities: Cumulative CO2 emissions: the 1,000 Gt budget for limiting global warming to 2C
http://climatechangepriorities.blogspot.com/2009/12/cumulative-co2-emissions-1000-gt-budget.html
Climate Policy Insights from a Science and Technology perspective. Sunday, 6 December 2009. Cumulative CO2 emissions: the 1,000 Gt budget for limiting global warming to 2C. Almost one quarter of the fifty year CO 2. Budget for the 2C temperature threshold has been used between 2000 and 2008. The probability of exceeding temperature thresholds as global warming progresses can be related to cumulative CO 2. Emissions - the year on year sum of CO 2. Emissions over a defined period of time. Emissions of CO 2.
