The additional greenhouse effect and the global climate: Do we burn our future. Der zusaetzliche Treibhauseffekt und das Weltklima: Verbrennen wir unsere Zukunft

Abstract

The article is the abridged version of a lecture of the general meeting of the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft (MPG). The most important gases which influence the climate, their concentration and sources are presented. Climate models predict for a doubling of the pre-industrial CO{sub 2}-content an increase of the mean temperature by 2.5deg C with an uncertainty of 1.5deg to 4.5deg C. The significance of even slight changes in precipitation is stressed and appropriate steps are called for in order to reduce the energy consumption. (KW).
