Club Of Rome Climate Change Report Predicts 2 Degree Celsius Warmin...

Some people expect the Earth to get 2 degrees Celsius by the end of this century. The Club of Rome says we'll be there in forty years.

Rising carbon dioxide emissions will cause a global average temperature rise of 2 degrees Celsius by 2052 and a 2.8 degree rise by 2080, as governments and markets are unlikely to do enough against climate change, the Club of Rome think tank said.

"It is unlikely that governments will pass necessary regulation to force the markets to allocate more money into climate-friendly solutions, and (we) must not assume that markets will work for the benefit of humankind," said Jorgen Randers, author of the report.
