Document Summary
Literally, you bring a km of ice: and they mel them, and measure the amount of co2. Interestingly, is the oscilations you see in blue (slide: past we would have being under a few km of ice (toronto, we are now 390ppm in co2, the black line are. It is not entirely known why that ice moved. Ipcc www. ipcc. ch intergovernmental panel on climate change industrial times as a result of change which occurs since that time: co2 is indicated in red. It says that how much additional energy is coming to the climate system since the pre industrial atmosphere. There is more c now than in the past: area estimated with co2 is relatively small. Then why study: the answer is that it"s small for estimated how much additional radiative forces now in the system. But what really matters is 50 years from now, or 100 or further.
