This depends on the probability distribution of future temperatures. We review the literature on estimates of future emissions for current\/stated policy scenarios and current pledge scenarios. Reviewing expert elicitations, abatement costs of scenarios, learning rates of technologies, fossil fuel supply side dynamics and geoengineering, we argue that scenarios with emissions largely beyond current\/stated policy scenarios and largely below current pledge scenarios are relatively unlikely. Based on this, we develop a literature-informed evaluation of the likelihoods of future temperature for use in Value at Risk stress tests in 2030, 2050 and 2100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Frank Venmans, Ben Carr, Literature-informed likelihoods of future emissions and temperatures, Climate Risk Management, Volume 44, 2024, 100605, ISSN 2212-0963, https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.crm.2024.100605.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\">\n<?xml encoding=\"UTF-8\"><p>The authors of this paper  review the literature on estimates of future emissions for current\/stated policy scenarios and current pledge scenarios.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"template":"","tags":[183,4150,4149,4153,4152],"publication-type":[436],"topic_area":[4692,4705],"class_list":["post-70755","publication","type-publication","status-publish","hentry","tag-climate-policy","tag-future-emissions","tag-probability-distribution","tag-stress-tests","tag-temperature-thresholds","publication-type-research-articles","topic_area-adaptation-and-resilience","topic_area-leadership"],"acf":{"exclude_from_sync":{"ref_value":"field_560538b0e7350","value":"0","type":false,"post_type":""},"show_translations_widget":{"ref_value":"field_6203d588c41e8","value":"0","type":false,"post_type":""},"downloads":{"ref_value":"field_52f16cc1a80f2","value":false,"type":"repeater","post_type":""},"rss_newsletter":{"ref_value":"field_54f5c2c1544d8","value":"","type":false,"post_type":""},"profile_link":{"ref_value":"field_52f164b5189e9","value":["frank-venmans",""],"type":"relationship","post_type":"profile"},"article_link":{"ref_value":"field_52eee3c7f0586","value":"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S2212096324000226?via%3Dihub","type":false,"post_type":""},"article_link_title":{"ref_value":"field_5322399d89d42","value":"external link to paper","type":false,"post_type":""},"spotlight":{"ref_value":"field_52f80896506d3","value":"","type":false,"post_type":""}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
