Debating Climate Economics: The Stern Review vs
... Stern found that under business as usual (i.e., assuming no new policies to reduce carbon emissions), the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere could reach double the pre-industrial level as early as 2035. This would essentially commit the world to more than 2oC of warming. By the end ...
