What have we raised? 1 degree in the last 150 years.
All regions of the world will change, with the risk that nearly a third of the Earth's species will vanish if global temperatures rise just 3.6 degrees above the average temperature in the 1980s-90s
How many species died out the last time we had an even warmer climate, during the Medieval Warm Period (ad 800-1300).
if global temperatures rise just 3.6 degrees
Its taken 150 years to raise 1 degree. How long will it take to raise 3.6 degrees.
The Medieval Warm Period or Medieval Climate Optimum was from approx. 800ad -1300ad. Then came this thing called The Little Ice Age, from approx. 1300-1850.
Imagine after warming for about 500 years, it then cools off for about 500 years.
Notice the coincidence of the ending of the Medieval Climate Optimum and the beginning of the Little Ice Age. And then the ending of the Little Ice Age, and the beginning of our current warming.
The first few degrees increase in global temperature will actually raise global food supply, but then it will plummet, according to the report.
All regions of the world will change, with the risk that nearly a third of the Earth's species will vanish if global temperatures rise just 3.6 degrees above the average temperature in the 1980s-90s, the new climate report says.
So which is it, 3.6 warmer destroys 1/3 of all species, or a few degrees warmer will raise global food supplies?
“The Medieval Warm Period or Medieval Climate Optimum was from approx. 800ad -1300ad. “
I love to use the MWP as a tool to stuff a cork into the
pie hole of pompous Goreons.
I remember reading about some grant funded moron stating that “We have to get rid of the MWP” as in the history books. It just does not fit their template.
