G8 agree 80% CO2 emission cuts

The G8 Countries have agreed to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 80% by 2050 and for India and China to cut their emissions by 50% in an effort to keep temperatures from rising above 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial, a figure which may cause dangerous climate change.... is it too late though..?

Scientists now able to link carbon emissions directly to global warming. To limit warming to a 2 degree Celsius rise above pre-industrial, carbon emissions must be limited from now until forever to half a trillion tonnes of carbon, about the amount emitted since the start of the industrial revolution until now..

Climate Chaos by 2020...?

Scientists predict climate chaos as early as 2020 if greenhouse gas/co2levels continue to rise. Currently CO2 levels stand at 385 ppm (parts per million) and are rising at around 1.5 ppm each year. World temps have already increased by 0.74 C since pre industrial times.... CO2 levels at 400 ppm, will it is believed push temps upto 2 degrees C above pre-industrial levels, at which point dangerous climate consequences may occur...time is running out..
