Reuters: ‘A yet-to-be-published study says the atmosphere may be less affected by rising concentrations of CO2, the main greenhouse gas from burning fossil fuels, than expected’
'A doubling of concentration of carbon dioxide in atmosphere over pre-industrial times would push up temperatures by between 1.3 and 2.9 degrees Celsius (2.3-5.2 F), it said' -- 'LESS WARMING? That is below a range of 2.0 to 4.5 degrees C (3.6-8.1 F) estimated as the likely response to a doubling of carbon dioxide in a 2007 report by UN's IPCC.
