Implications of Limiting CO ₂ Concentrations for Land Use and Energy

The Power of Green Carbon dioxide is produced both by fossil fuel burning and by deforestation and other land-use changes. Limiting both sources of CO 2 is necessary if we are to curb global warming. Wise et al. (p. 1183 ) use an integrated assessment model to explore the consequences of limiting atmospheric CO 2 concentrations at levels between 450 and 550 parts per million through a combination of fossil-fuel emissions reductions and land-use...
