  7. The Macroeconomic Impact of Climate Change: Global vs. Local

    Working Paper 32450. DOI 10.3386/w32450. Issue Date May 2024. This paper estimates that the macroeconomic damages from climate change are six times larger than previously thought. We exploit natural variability in global temperature and rely on time-series variation. A 1°C increase in global temperature leads to a 12% decline in world GDP.

  8. Climate Change: The Evidence and Our Options

    As the evidence for human-caused climate change has increased, the number of Americans who believe it has decreased. The latest Pew Research Center (2010) poll in October, 2009, shows that only 57% of Americans believe global warming is real, down from 71% in April, 2008.

  9. Global warming in the twenty-first century: An alternative scenario

    These scenarios yield a steep, relentless increase in global temperature throughout the twenty-first century ( 4, 10) with warming of several degrees Celsius by 2100, if climate sensitivity is 2-4°C for doubled CO 2, as climate models suggest ( 4, 11 - 13 ). These figures can give the impression that curtailment of global warming is almost ...

  10. The Scientific Consensus on Climate Change

    Policy-makers and the media, particularly in the United States, frequently assert that climate science is highly uncertain. Some have used this as an argument against adopting strong measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, while discussing a major U.S. Environmental Protection Agency report on the risks of climate change, then-EPA administrator Christine Whitman argued, "As ...

  11. Quantifying the consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the

    Among abstracts expressing a position on AGW, 97.1% endorsed the consensus position that humans are causing global warming. In a second phase of this study, we invited authors to rate their own papers. Compared to abstract ratings, a smaller percentage of self-rated papers expressed no position on AGW (35.5%).

  12. Carbon dioxide and a warming climate are not problems

    Prior to the mid-19th century, Earth was in the grip of the Little Ice Age. Since then, temperatures have on average trended upward. At the same time, human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2) have increased, and the interest of scientists has turned to consider the extent of the relative contributions of anthropogenic CO 2 and natural forces to warming.

  13. Global warming in the pipeline

    Abstract. Improved knowledge of glacial-to-interglacial global temperature change yields Charney (fast-feedback) equilibrium climate sensitivity 1.2 ± 0.3°C (2σ) per W/m 2, which is 4.8°C ± 1.2°C for doubled CO 2.Consistent analysis of temperature over the full Cenozoic era—including 'slow' feedbacks by ice sheets and trace gases—supports this sensitivity and implies that CO 2 ...

  17. PDF Global Warming Acceleration: Causes and Consequences

    Global temperature in the GISS analysis increased 0.28°C in 2023, from 1.16°C to 1.44°C (Fig. 1), the largest annual increase in the 144-year record. This annual rise is largely due to the ongoing tropical El Nino warming, but no prior El Nino engendered as much warming, which points to an additional drive for global warming acceleration.

    To verify if the search string used for CC/GW/CE research may have missed a substantial portion of research papers that did not use the three searched keywords, a third search was conducted using the following search string: TOPIC: ((("greenhouse gas∗" OR "GHG∗") NOT ("climate" OR "climate change" OR "global warming" OR "climate emergency"))).

  20. Climate change: Does international research fulfill global demands and

    Background Climate change is safe to be one of the biggest challenges of mankind. Human activities, especially the combustion of fossil fuels, contribute to the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and thus to the pace of climate change. The effects of climate change are already being felt, and the resulting damage will most likely be enormous worldwide. Because global impacts vary ...

  23. PDF The World Will Cool Off

    Fig. 2 shows that the recent unusual global warming was the product of two phenomena: (1) low latitude transition from a strong La Nina to a moderate El Nino, and (2) longer-term (post-2010) warming at middle latitudes (especially in the Northern Hemisphere). Thus, we ascribe3 the post-2010 acceleration of warming and the deceptive appearance of a
