One Shot Left

George Monbiot's latest offering in the Guardian is the most gloomy thing I have read about climate change ever

He has based his conclusions on the recent findings of Jim Hansen the NASA climate specialist. Hansen assets that 350ppm is the safe level of CO2 in the atmosphere (we are currently above 380ppm) and anything above that could lead to rapid catastrophic climate change across the globe.

Monbiot also refers to the work of the Public Interest Research Centre who are holding a conference on the topic on Thursday 27th Nov.

The science has moved on rapidly from the 2007 IPCC reports, ice sheets melting much more rapidly, methane venting from the tundra etc etc etc.

It is obviously time to act (80% by 2050) but have we left it too late.......

Gloomy, Monbiot, may be but One Shot Left is essential reading.
