Hothouse Earth: Runaway global warming threatens ‘habitability of the planet for humans’
August 6, 2018 /
We’ve been warned.
Runaway global warming on our planet remains a distinct possibility in the decades and centuries ahead, scientists reported Monday in a new study, warning that a "hothouse Earth" threatens the very "habitability of the planet for human beings."
Such a hothouse Earth climate would see global average temperatures some 6 to 8 degrees Fahrenheit higher than they are now, with sea levels 30 to 200 feet higher than today, the paper said.
