In our opening show this Fall of 2013, climate scientist Paul Beckwith 
suggested warming could come very suddenly, even in a decade or two. A new 
paper by Morgan Schaller and James Wright of Rutgers finds, as Joe Romm 
writes, "When CO2 Levels Doubled 55 Million Years Ago, Earth May Have 
Warmed 9°F In 13 Years". It's a shocking example of what could happen.

Business and political leaders have already announced they expect, or will 
tolerate a doubling of CO2 levels from the pre-industrial level of 270 
parts per million to over 600 parts per million. We are already on our 
way, touching 400 parts per million this year, and adding more carbon 
faster every year, as the fossil fuel party expands around the world.
