  • Keep global warming below 2ºC, implying a peak in global CO2 emissions no later than 2015 and recognise that even a warming of 2ºC carries a very high risk of serious impacts and the need for major adaptation efforts.

    The author of "Flat, hot, and crowded" continues his discussion with the readers in what is titled 'Chapter 18.' In true web 2.0 fashion he encourages the readers to become the writers with frequent posts requesting response. He plans on using the best posts to create the real Chapter 18 for the second edition of his book.
