"Given what we know about the sensitivity of the climate to added
greenhouse gases, it's possible to calculate how much more carbon
dioxide we can admit while still having a reasonable chance of staying
within the two degree Celsius envelope. What's striking about these
calculations is how many large changes we'll have to make in order to
get there. According to Jeffrey Sachs of Columbia University's Earth
Institute, the per-capita emissions would have to drop from five tons
annually (where they are now) to 1.6 tons by 2050."
Here's what we need to do. And we really need to seriously fund the
development of the parts we don't have yet.
