This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: UNEP_2009_4 reasons to become climate neutral, "Sealevels are rising and will continue to do so, forcing hundreds of thousands of people in coastal zones to migrate" supports "The build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate", Four reasons to become climate neutral defined as "The term climate neutrality is used in this book to mean living in a way which produces no net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This should be achieved by reducing your own GHG emissions as much as possible, and using carbon offsets to neutralize the remaining emissions." (14), "Plants and animals which cannot adjust will die out" supports "The build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate", "The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says many parts of the planet will be warmer" supports "The build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate", "Reputable scientists believe the Earth’s average temperature should not rise by more than 2°C over pre-industrial levels." (18) therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral, If "Today the overall amount of GHGs has topped 390 ppm CO2e ... and the figure is rising by 1.5–2 ppm annually," and if "Reputable scientists believe the Earth’s average temperature should not rise by more than 2°C over pre-industrial levels," and if "Scientists say there is a 50 per cent chance of keeping to 2°C if the total GHG concentration remains below 450 ppm," then we should reduce "our climate footprint" therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral, "Today the overall amount of GHGs has topped 390 ppm CO2e ... and the figure is rising by 1.5–2 ppm annually" CO2e is defined as "parts per million of carbon dioxide equivalent – all GHGs expressed as a common metric in relation to their warming potential", "Droughts, floods and other forms of extreme weather will become more frequent, threatening food supplies." supports "The build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate", "Scientists say there is a 50 per cent chance of keeping to 2°C if the total GHG concentration remains below 450 ppm" therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral, "Today the overall amount of GHGs has topped 390 ppm CO2e ... and the figure is rising by 1.5–2 ppm annually" therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral, "The build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate" therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral, if "the build-up of GHGs threatens to set the Earth inexorably on the path to a unpredictably different climate," then we should reduce "our climate footprint" therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) we should become climate neutral
