BRIEFING NOTES ON CLIMATE SCIENCE AND CLIMATE CHANGE
... - So far we have seen an increase of 0.8C in the average surface temperature of the Earth since 1900, with melting in the Polar Regions and more frequent extreme weather. Simple calculations and our most complex models all agree: if we double CO2 we will see an average warming of between 2 and 4.5C. ...
