Bathinda: World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Greenhouse gas bulletin published on Monday painted a gloomy picture of emissions and emphasized the need for scientific discussions, scientific discussions for climate change negotiations at the COP26 UN climate conference appeared in Glasgow.
Claiming that the world is a “way of trajectory”, the Head of WMO Petteria Talas said, “At the rate of increasing the current greenhouse gas concentration, we will see an increase in temperature at the end of this century far exceeding the target of the Paris 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius agreement above the level Pre-industry.
“WMO measures the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) by 2020 in 149 percent of the pre-industrial level, while noting the methane level at 262 percent and the level of nitro oxide at 123 percent compared to when humans began to disturb the balance of 1750.
The economic slowdown driven by Koronavirus triggers a temporary decline in new emissions but has no impact that can be seen at the level of atmospheric greenhouse gas or its growth rate.
Because emissions continue, so will go up global temperatures.
Given the long life of CO2, the current temperature level will last for decades, even if emissions are reduced quickly to zero clean.
From intense heat and rainfall to sea level rise and marine acidation, increased temperatures will be accompanied by more extreme weather, all with a broad socio-economic impact.
The WMO head said, “The latter on earth experienced a comparable CO2 concentration was 30 to 50 lakh years ago, when the planet was 2-3 ° C with warmer and sea level 10 to 20 meters higher.
But there are no 7, 8 billion people later.
“Roughly, half of the CO2 emitted by humans currently remains in the atmosphere and the other half is taken by the ocean and land ecosystem, artificial bulletin.
Greenhouse gas level rises further, claiming WMO reports
