Climate change poses serious, wide-ranging threats to human societies and natural ecosystems around the world. The general consensus is that in order to avoid the most severe consequences, global average temperatures should not be allowed to rise more than two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Limiting the Magnitude of Future Climate Change, examines the most effective options for reducing atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations by analysing and assessing strategies for reducing the net human influence on the climate. The book identifies several principles to guide climate policy and strategy, including environmental and cost effectiveness, innovation, consistency, transparency, and global participation, among others.
