Projected Extreme Temperatures: Possible 21st Century Climates

Projected Extreme Temperatures

Such an increase would threaten to roll back decades of development progress; thus, we are at a ‘make it or break it’ point in time. This course presents the most recent scientific evidence, as well as some of the opportunities for urgent action.
