Why is solving the climate change problem so challenging?
Lesson Objectives...
Use the carbon dioxide model simulation to generate data and test ideas about different emissions rates scenarios to determine how to reach carbon dioxide equilibrium in the atmosphere.

What we figured out this lesson...
Our carbon imbalance in our atmosphere is due to human combustion.
We release an estimated 10.5 gigatons of CO2 from human combustion.
Simply cutting emissions in half will not have halve temperature increases.
To reach.CO2 emissions equillibrium emissions would need to be cut by 9 gigatons.
Any reduction in emissions helps to slow the global temperature increase.
