Remember:

1C by 2015 irreversible feedbacks
1.5C by 2025 tipping points
2C by 2034 'highly dangerous'
2.5C by 2042 catastrophe
3C by 2049 collapse
3.5C by 2055 most species extinct
4C by 2060 most humans gone

The worst climate change scenario is becoming increasingly plausible.
Much depends on

1) whether we see emergency reductions in emissions in the next few years

2) the disputed impact of global dimming

3) how quickly Arctic sea ice disappears and what the impact of albedo changes proves to be

4) deforestation levels

Global warming is set to speed up even more.

See this thread for discussion of global dimming and peer-reviewed science on near-term abrupt warming:

'By 2055, climate change is likely to have warmed the world by a dangerous 4°C unless we stop pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere the way we do now. This is the startling conclusion of a study by the UK Met Office'.
