century.

A baseline scenario projects close to 80 GtCO2 in 2100.

Global carbon emissions per year were over 40 GtCO2 in 2018.

Question text

Select the INCORRECT statement:

Select one:

Climate models use mathematical simulations to reproduce climate system interactions.

Climate projections are used to predict the weather in different regions.

A forecast is a prediction of what the weather will be like in the short to medium term.

No-climate-policy baseline refers to the projected baseline emissions based on current policies
presently in place around the world.
