1 % of the Kelvin scale? I see that you might understand that 0 Kelvin is quite cold but what is the top temp in the Kelvin scale ?

Without that how can you work out what 1 % of the absolute temp scale is?

They estimate that the suns core temp is about 1.57×10⁷ K. That is 15,700,000K. That could be a good proxy for the top temp.

So a 1 % rise ( absolute Kelvin scale ) using the sun center as a reasonable top scale number would be a rise of 157,000 K.

mmmm

I think you wouldnt have to worry about being woken up when global temps rise by just 1% in absolute terms ( Kelvin ) .

LOL
