re: ipcc report finds temps on track to rise &... This is from the summary report.
• From 1750 to 2011, CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion and cement production have released 365 [335 to 395] GtC to the atmosphere, while deforestation and other land use change are estimated to have released 180 [100 to 260] GtC. This results in cumulative anthropogenic emissions of 545 [460 to 630] GtC.
Thats a lot of carbon. 1 GtC is 10^9 tonnes of Carbon.
Also it is good to see that Cement production gets a mention. When you travel in China you will see many cement kilns with no abatement measures.
