Tóm tắt: | Carbon dioxide (CO2) is without doubt the
best-known anthropogenic greenhouse gas.
As long ago as 1895, the Swedish Nobel
laureate Svante Arrhenius saw that the
increased emissions of CO2 resulting from
a rapid rise in fossil fuel burning had the
potential to affect global temperatures. In
his landmark paper ‘On the Influence of
Carbonic Acid (Carbon Dioxide) in the Air
upon the Temperature of the Ground’ he
considered the radiative effects of CO2 and
water vapour on the surface temperature of
the earth. Arrhenius calculated that if the
concentrations of CO2 increased by 250–
300% compared to 1895 levels, temperatures
in the Arctic could rise by 8–9°C. At
the time his paper was published, such an
increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations
remained theoretical. Even if global CO2
concentrations were increasing, there was
no way to reliably measure such increases |
