4°C Warming Means Your Future (Yes, Yours) is Very Unpleasant : TreeHugger


Of course the Hadley site no longer has a working link to the map... They probably realized that it was complete and utter nonsense.


Even though I do believe MMGW is a major factor in recent warming (last 50 years), I do not believe the long range climate models. There is just no way that the Midwest will warm by 7C in 33 years time.

i agree. these type of exaggerations do more harm than good. however, there are places in the arctic (e.g svalbard) that have warmed uncontrollably in recent decades. not that i'm worried. people will take action when it becomes too obvious too ignore. within 50-100 years is my guess. but there has to be an economically sustainable solution..

Yep. The average temperature there was -5C in 1910. Now it's -4C

Things are out of control

I saw this a while ago and now I'm wondering, do you have a source for this? I think it would be fun to play around with this sort of data.

Edit: nevermind, I seem to have found it (or at least something similar)
