Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Current predictions point to a doubling of the rates of warming over the next 30 years. They predict an overall increase of 1.5 to 4C by 2100. One uncertainty is because future greenhouse gas emissions cannot be accurately predicted. The temperature range takes into account varying increases in greenhouse gas emissions.
