"Oil, gas and coal output already planned or in the pipeline will
overwhelm efforts to cap global warming at levels consistent with a
liveable planet, the UN and leading research groups warned Wednesday.
The world is on track to produce 50 per cent more fossil fuel than could
be burned without increasing the temperature of the Earth's surface by
more than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, they said in a
major report.
If temperature rise is to be limited to 1.5C, planned fossil fuel
production is more than double what can be tolerated."
The first rule of holes applies.
