Global mean temperature predictions
Ensembles of four predictions of global mean temperature resulting from ‘business as usual’ changes in greenhouse gases following on from observed changes since 1860 (orange curves). The addition of sulphate aerosol cooling is shown in the red curves.

Change in annual temperatures for the 2050s
The change in annual temperatures for the 2050s compared with the present day, when the climate model is driven with an increase in greenhouse gas concentrations equivalent to about a 1% increase per year in CO2. The picture shows the average of four model runs with different starting conditions.

Conclusions :
• Stabn at 750 does not avoid most effects. • Stabn at 550 does, but at considerable
cost (= c.20 times Kyoto reductions).• Sustainable development (cf SRES B2
pathway) needs also to be part of the ‘solution’

Conclusions : 2
• Invest in adaptation, to increase resilience to climate change: technology (eg GM), engineering (eg water use efficiency), institutions. These are ‘win-win’ (eg drought-proofing).
• Invest especially in key vulnerable regions and sectors: Africa, Indian subcont., small islands; water, food, coastal settlement.
• Revise the adaptation/mitigation emphasis:

Conclusions : 3
• Foster adaptation to avoid increased inequality (autonomous adaptn=more unequal effects of climate change).
• Foster increased resilience (especially in the ‘tail’): a) seek the sub-optimal (eg drought resistant/non-max yield crop varieties); b) (many) small vs (few) large actions; c) promote stability (vs growth?).
