Why 2-Year Surge in Global Warmth Worries Scientists 1224 - Too many cannot figure out what caused it. Ocen thermal stratification is one factor. But a bigger one is probably fewer clouds, especially low-lying clouds. And part of that is fewer sulfur emissions for ships, which are now required to burn much lower-sulfur fuel. There are other factors as well.

3.5 Americans Create Enough Carbon Emissions to Kill 1 Person 0721.rtf - 4,434 metric tonnes of CO2 yields 1 person dying this century from increased temperature. 904 deaths from operating a tyoical US coal power plant for 1 year. Eliminating planet-heating emissions by 2050 would save an expected 74 million lives around the world this century. It would take 3.5 Americans, 25 Brazilians or 146 Nigerians to kill 1 person. - take 1. See take 2 below in the “Refugees” section.

“Many lines of evidence demonstrate that human activities, especially emissions of greenhouse (heat-trapping) gases, are primarily responsible for recent observed climate change…. There are no alternative explanations, and no natural cycles are found in the observational record that can explain the observed changes in climate. (Very high confidence)
“Even if humans immediately stopped emitting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, the world would still feel at least an additional 0.5°F (0.3°C) of warming over this century, compared with today. The projected actual rise, scientists say, will be as much as 2°C.
