Agriculture will account for 70 per cent of global carbon emissions by 2050 compared with 25 per cent now, if global food production maintains a “business as usual” strategy, Jürgen Voegele of the World Bank has warned.
Our review of the most current climate research points towards passing the world's most commonly recognized critical global warming target of no more that 2 Degrees Celsius warming (over pre industrial levels,) in 2039 or sooner.
That is very very bad news for future generations. Here is what missing the 2 degree Celsius target (or even less than the two degree target means to your future,):
“Our home planet is dangerously near a tipping point at which human-made greenhouse gases reach a level where major climate changes can proceed mostly under their own momentum.” -James Hansen
Even if carbon dioxide emissions came to a sudden halt, the carbon dioxide already in Earth's atmosphere could continue to warm our planet for hundreds of years, according to Princeton University-led research published in the journal Nature Climate Change. The study suggests that it might take a lot less carbon than previously thought to reach the global temperature scientists deem unsafe.

I do not think it will be long before the Las Vegas odds makers start setting odds and taking bets on if society will solve global warming before the world experiences its first trillion dollar climate catastrophe triggered by escalating global warming. Las Vegas odds makers may also soon give odds on the likelihood of us crossing the critical climate destabilization tipping points that will cause an extinction level event that could destroy most of humanity and our planetary bio-systems.

A leading Evolutioneer and author of Evolution's Arrow and The Evolutionary Manifesto John Stewart has just published a definitive article on how cooperation evolved and what makes it work. It is in the BioSystems Journal and is called The Direction of Evolution: The rise of cooperative organization.
President Obama and his harshest critics — business groups and Republicans — have a shared interest in exaggerating the impact of the president’s proposal on climate change.
