Climate change: Planet to warm by 4 degrees by 2100 — Sydney Morning Herald
Temperatures are on course to rise at least 4 degrees by the end of the century, according to research that finds earlier climate models projecting smaller increases are likely to be wrong.
The research, by a team led by the University of NSW, says a 4-degree rise in temperature would be potentially catastrophic for agriculture in warm regions of the world, including Australia.
Forecasts in many climate models for lower temperature rises were based on assumptions that clouds might help limit temperature increases.
