    Professor Hans Rosling

    200 years of Global Change (in an unjust world).

    STOCKHOLM 28 September 2013

    Climate Change: the State of the ScienceThe first public forum for the launch of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment

    Working Group I Summary for Policymakers, Climate Change 2013: the Physical Science Basis.

    Special guest speaker Professor Hans Rosling(Gapminder and Karolinska Institutet)

    Lecture Presentation 19 minutes '200 Years of Global Change'http://youtu.be/grZSxoLPqXI

    This is one of the clearest and simplest presentations I have ever seen about the most important facts of fossil

    fuel use, responsibility, renewable energy facts, actual population growth vs the myths, and the implications of

    climate change.

    Hans Rosling addresses the major global changes of 1900 to 2100.Covers climate science history and projections of the IPCC AR5 WGI Report.

    Summarizes the implications and reality of the history and future projections using easy to understand

    diagrams and graphs using simple explanations and comparisons.

    Presentation Highlightsor How little people really know about the actual facts

    Population Facts vs Myths

    Expected world population by 2100? 10 Billion.

    Average children per family in 2100? Less than 2.

    Carbon Dioxide emissions per Capita( - by income by country from 1900 )

    In 2010 China's emissions per Capita was still below the level of the American people in 1900

    Global Fossil Fuel & Energy Distribution

    by Wealth per Billion of Population, in 2 minutes

    Energy Use Distribution of today's 7 billion population

    The wealthiest one billion people on the planet have been using:

    - 50% of ALL Fossil Fuel energy produced every year

    2/2

    - well above 90% of ALL Hydro and Nuclear energy

    - and almost 100% of Wind & Solar energy today

    The Poorest four billion use next to nothing of anything

    If you burn coal, you save children from dying

    http://youtu.be/grZSxoLPqXI?t=14m30sto 18m4s

    What % of the total world energy now comes from solar and wind power?

    Is it 2%, 5%, 10%, 20% or 40%?

    We overestimate what we have done.

    We think we have done more than we have.

    And we haven't understood how much we have to do.

    Climate change: the state of the science (data visualization) by IGBP Sept 2013http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EWOrZQ3L-c (4 mins)

    Can we remain below 2 degrees C?

    The scale of dangerous climate change depends on decisions made now.

    It is up to societies today to decide the future we want.

    The Carbon Budget remaining to have a chance to stay below 2C is only another 250 billion tonnes of Carbon.

    We burn 10 (GtC) billion tonnes Carbon per year now and its increasing ~3% per year.

    The Carbon Budget will run out in under 25 years unless significant cuts to fossil fuel use are made.

    It's a choice. A collective global responsibility. An unavoidable one apparently.
