    2013 - Year of Climate Decision

    In this graph of U.S. average temperature projections, the solid red line represents temperatures increasing by more than 10°F within current lifetimes, following a "high emissions scenario" pathway — which business-as-usual is currently exceeding. The solid green line represents temperatures following a moderate low emissions pathway, which we could still improve upon with bold action. (The dashed lines represent previous, now-outdated projections.) (Draft NAC p20)
