To achieve an exponential rate of CO2 emissions like that, we'd have to achieve an exponential rate of burning.Originally posted by doodab View PostAt the current growth rate of approx 1.9 ppm (I've taken a 5 year moving average of the data BB linked to) we should have CO2 levels around 470ppm by 2050.
However, if you look at a moving average of the data it seems that the rate of increase is in fact increasing, from around 0.9 ppm per year in 1970 to around 1.9 ppm per year today. If that increase continues, we should be on course to reach or exceed the IPCC projection.
Is there enough fuel left in the ground to do that until 2050?Comment
