The optimist vs. pessimist debate for CO2 emissions centers around the effect that it has on the planet’s temperature and the future production of the green house gas. Essentially this is a global warming debate as well. This debate seems to be dominated by the pessimists, who believe that the Earth’s temperature could rise as much as 4.5 degrees Celsius and the ocean’s level could rise as much 43 cm, both of which would have devastating effects on Earth’s life and human society. In addition, they believe the world is not doing enough to limit CO2 production, with the US being the biggest offender. | |||
