2. Humble Human Influences
A lot of great EU graphics re climate change
Against the right scale (K) the sensitivity of the atmosphere makes more sense
Black carbon
Changing CO2 concentrations have increased the capture of energy in the atmosphere by less than 1%
Energy in the climate system is expressed as w/m2
Fossil fuel burning was identified as a risk long ago
Modest human impacts on climate can be analogized to slight changes in diet
Scientists have called for dramatic reductions - but no such policy in place
Since human impacts amounts to 1% of global energy flow, everything else has to be understood very well
There is no such thing about scientific certainty in the way it's commonly used
What are some of the risky what-ifs?
What do we know for sure regarding climate change?
