IPCC ConclusionsWarming of the climate system
1. Increasing in global average air and ocean temperatures
2. Rising global average sea level
3. Reductions of snow and ice
Warmest 12 years on record

GEO 4 Unprecedented environmental change is indisputable
– The red areas on these two images show the expansion of seasonal melting of the Greenland ice sheet from 1992 to 2002.– The Yellow line shows the temperature increased by 1ºC from 1900 to 2000

An increasing body of observations gives a collective picture of a warming world and other
changes in the climate system
Global-average surface temperature increased by about 0.6 ºC over 20th
century
1990s warmest decade and 1998 warmest year in last 1000 years in
Northern Hemisphere
Over last 50 years night-time minimum temperatures increased by about
0.2 ºC per decade
10% reduction in snow cover ice since late 1960s
Reduction of about two weeks in annual duration of lake and river ice
over 20th century
Widespread retreat of mountain glaciers during 20th century

Northern Hemisphere spring and summer sea-ice extent decreased by
10-15% since 1950s
40% decline in late summer Arctic sea-ice thickness in recent decades
Global-average sea level has increased by 10-20 cm during 20th
century
0.5-1% per decade increase in Northern Hemisphere mid-latitude
precipitation during 20th century
2-4% increase in frequency of heavy precipitation events in Northern
Hemisphere mid- and high-latitudes over latter half of 20th century

The (very!) basic idea

Some bounces off clouds (and other obstacles), but much of it
reaches the ground

The earth warms and radiates the sun’s heat back into space…

But some of this heat is absorbed by “greenhouse gases” in the
atmosphere…

And some of this captured heat radiates back to ground, warming
it up more, etc.…

Without this insulating blanket, the earth would be much less
hospitable to life
The moon has no greenhouse gases, andits surface temperatureis much lower thanthe Earth’s.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Water: Water availability, floods and droughtsNumber of people exposed to water stress
Ecosystems: Species number and risk of extinctionCoastal wetlands, areaCoral bleaching Species range shifts and wildfire risk
Food: Productivity of cerealsLocal impacts on small holders
Coasts: Number of people exposed to flooding each yearDamage from floods and stormsAverage rate of sea level rise
Health: Changed distribution of some disease vectorsNumber of people exposed to malnutrition, diarrhoeal, cardio‐respiratory, and other infectious diseases, Morbidity and mortality from heat waves, floods, and droughts

Increased risk of floods, potentially displacing tens of millions of people, due to sea
level rise and heavy rainfall events, especially in Small Island States and low-lying
deltaic areas.
Bangladesh is projected to lose about 17% of its land area with a sea level rise of one
meter - very difficult to adapt due to lack of adaptive capacity

Food production needs to double to meet the needs of an additional 3 billion people in the next 30 years
Climate change is projected to decrease
agricultural productivity in the tropics

Developing countries are the most vulnerable to
climate change• Impacts are worse - already more flood and drought prone and a large share
of the economy is in climate sensitive sectors
• Lower capacity to adapt because of a lack of financial, institutional and
technological capacity and access to knowledge
• Climate change is likely to impact disproportionately upon the poorest
countries and the poorest persons within countries, exacerbating inequities in
health status and access to adequate food, clean water and other resources.
• Net market sector effects are expected to be negative in most developing
countries
