Arizona's Future Climate: Temps Rising, Water Disappearing

the annual minimum and maximum temperatures have been increasing across all six Southwestern states and will continue to do so, resulting in a possible increase by 8 degrees Fahrenheit by the year 2099.

How Can Business Action Bend The Curve Below 2 Degrees? - Business & Climate Summit 2016


The Paris Agreement is based on the twin pillars of collective action and the individual Nationally Determined Contributions put forward by countries in the lead-up to COP21. These NDCs are designed to represent the maximum possible ambition that nations believe they can achieve over the next decade and a half. Yet, although countries committed to a net zero carbon emissions world with a temperature increase well below two degrees above pre-industrial levels, current commitments leave us well short of these goals. Business has demonstrated the economic case for ambitious leadership across energy, transport, supply chains, industrial processes and the built environment. How can this leadership be scaled up to get us on track for a sub-two degree world? Where are the biggest opportunities? What would the impact be if the business community as whole delivered the maximum possible ambition it could achieve?
