The best projections show that average global temperatures are likely to increase 3.1-7.2Â° F (1.8-4.0Â° C) by the end of the century depending on the amount of carbon emissions.
Substantial scientific evidence indicates that an increase in the global average temperature of more than 2Â°F above where we are today poses severe risks to natural systems and human health. To avoid this level of warming, the U.S. needs to reduce heat-trapping emissions by at least 80 percent below 2000 levels by 2050. Boosting energy efficiency: The energy used to power, heat, and cool our homes, businesses, and industries is the single largest contributor to global warming. 2  Energy efficiency technologies allow us to use less energy to get the sameâor higherâlevel of production, service, and comfort.
