Climate Casino Graphs


Hi my name is Tiffany Collazo and my purpose for this blog is to further explain the graph that is shown above. In English 101 we are discussing the effects of climate change as well as what causes it. In doing so we are reading a book called “The Climate Casino” by William D. Nordhaus. The graph that you see before you is pulled from the book. 
In Figure 2 which can be found on page 21 of the book "The Climate Casino" the graph shows the global emissions and the trend between the years of 1900-2010. Throughout the years you are able to tel that the amount of CO2 emissions as well as the trend has increased drastically. Between the years of 1900-1945 you are able to see that the global emissions did have its downfall as well as its uprise. However in the year 1960 the amount of emission never had a downfall.

  1. Hi tiffany, this is a nice blog but i see your mentioning the graph but i don't see it. Maybe it is my computer though. I think you can be a little more detailed on what the graph means. What does it mean when co2 emissions increase drastically? what can happen? i see a lot of information which is really good. Nice blog :)
