Scientists are confident of a link
between greenhouse gas emissions, the increasing
concentration of those gases in the atmosphere, and climate
change. However, the final impacts from climate change are
difficult to estimate, since we have no direct experience
with new climates. Past climate change has been small and
slow, making the impacts hard to discern. Further,
technological changes have obscured signals from historic
climate changes. Despite these difficulties, the impact
literature has made many strides toward understanding and
quantifying climatic impacts.
