• Resumen

  • Marshall talks about saving the Earth from the danger of climate change. Humanity has another shot at stopping dangerous climate change. A fresh look at temperature data from the last decade offers an unexpected opportunity to stay below the agreed international target of 2 degrees Celtius of global warming. The study took data on the rise in temperatures over the most recent decades, and worked out what this means for the coming decades. It turns out Earth will warm more slowly over this century than they thought it would, buying a little more time to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
