Radley Horton, Ph.D. “The Heat is on: The Climate Imperative”

In 2007 Arctic sea ice crashed to levels far below anything that had been seen in the last 50 years. Climate models predicted this wouldn’t happen before the year 2100 or 2050 at the earliest. If the climate models missed the timing so badly what other climate behavior could they be missing? The earth may be far more sensitive to greenhouse gases than climate scientists have thought. And what happens to the systems that respond to climate change whether it is crops or the economy? Those systems too could be more sensitive in a nonlinear way to a given amount of warming than we thought they were. Small changes in temperature might be a climate tipping point leading to catastrophic consequences. Our speaker will expand on these issues and answer questions related to them.
