           LIVING GREEN - Tuesday, March 11, 2008
-----------------------------------------------------------


Good morning, 

A report on msnbc.com recently indicates that the task of 
cutting greenhouse gas emissions enough to avert a 
dangerous rise in global temperatures may be far more 
difficult than previous research suggested, indicating 
that it would require the world to cease carbon emissions 
altogether within a matter of decades.

Please scroll down for more details. 

Thanks for reading,

Using advanced computer models to factor in deep-sea warming 
and other aspects of the carbon cycle that naturally creates 
and removes carbon dioxide (CO2), the scientists, from 
countries including the United States, Canada and Germany, 
are delivering a simple message: The world must bring carbon 
emissions down to near zero to keep temperatures from rising 
further.

Although many nations have been pledging steps to curb emis-
sions for nearly a decade, the world's output of carbon from 
human activities totals about 10 billion tons a year and has 
been steadily rising.

But Caldeira and Oregon State University professor Andreas 
Schmittner now argue that it makes more sense to focus on a 
temperature threshold as a better marker of when the planet 
will experience severe climate disruptions. The Earth has 
already warmed by 0.76 degrees Celsius (nearly 1.4 degrees 
Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels. Most scientists 
warn that a temperature rise of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 
degrees Fahrenheit) could have serious consequences.
