Why do we still talk in these terms : " the impacts of a 1.5 °C rise in global average temperatures" Archived Message Posted by CJ on October 1, 2019, 11:03 am, in reply to "MEDIA LENS ALERT: ‘How Dare You!’ The Climate Crisis And The Public Demand For Real Action" the man in the street can't easily translate this to reality. If we were looking at terrorist risks we would have a simple set of ratchets which the world and his wife would understand! I still need to translate centigrade to fahrenheit to get a feel for the temperature - how do you convert the global average back to the local peaks? cheers Message Thread: MEDIA LENS ALERT: ‘How Dare You!’ The Climate Crisis And The Public Demand For Real Action - johnlilburne September 30, 2019, 8:42 pm Why do we still talk in these terms : " the impacts of a 1.5 °C rise in global average temperatures" - CJ October 1, 2019, 11:03 am   Searching
