Contents Notes | An analysis of 1996 global climate-change scenarios compared with those from 1992, confirming an overall warming trend and the likelihood of increases in weather extremes at least partly attributable to greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, it projects that these trends will be so gradual as to be subject to dispute for many decades. |
