A new study, which researchers have called "the most exhaustive end-to-end analysis of climate change impacts yet performed", predicts that global warming could be twice as bad as previous estimates had suggested.
Published this month in the Journal of Climate, the MIT-based research found a 90% probability that worldwide surface temperatures will rise at least 9 degrees by 2100.

It was 9C that is 13F according to the last report posted this morning.
Or not.
don’t you think if weather could be predicted that farmers would be the richest segment of the population?
Newsflash: I won’t be here, nor will anyone I know, ergo I don’t care.
We’re going to do ourselves in by other methods way before any global warming does.
Is that with, or without, the hockey stick?
And here I forgot to wear my hip boots today...
I am going out on a limb...any predicting, by 2100, global temperatures will stay the same. If I am wrong...please come & find me for an apology...:o)
Someone needs to tell this guy.
And I'm going to the bank to request some of that gummint money.....er.....I mean, a loan using my "vacation" property as collateral!
WWWWeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Ain't socialism a kick tho!?
Pshaw..!
That’s nothing - The average temperature in the Northern hemisphere has risen thirty degrees in the past three months!
Can they accurately predict what the temperature is going to be this July?
I didn’t think so.

Global water crisis...Global food shortage...Ozone hole.....Oceans dying....Global deforestation.....

Looks like we should stock up on mittens and hats.
Projections are always your agenda glorifed, but it's in truth just a powerball lottery pick off some shareware numbers generation program.
This new “study”, which was just published, could not possibly have included recent measured data that shows that the Atlantic conveyor does not behave at all like it was thought...thus making all computer “studies” meaningless.
Also, most projections have the world in a cooling period for the next 15-25 years (or more).
The BS meter is reading “high”
