Global Warming: Emissions Scenarios and Climate Impacts - Lecture 29

Explore greenhouse gas emissions scenarios and their potential impacts on climate change in this 48-minute lecture from Yale University's course on The Atmosphere, the Ocean and Environmental Change. Examine IPCC projections for atmospheric CO2 concentrations and associated temperature increases by 2100. Discuss potential advantages and disadvantages of global warming, and consider strategies for mitigating its effects. Review key concepts from a recent exam before delving into emissions scenarios, climate-related challenges, and possible actions to address global warming.
