Humans 'very likely' cause global warming

Estos son los 'highlights' de la noticia:

<< • Scientists release a 21-page report strongly linking humans to climate change
• Report scientist: Evidence of warming on the planet is unequivocal
• Scientists predict global temperature increases of 3.2-7.1 degrees F by 2100
• Sea levels could rise between 7 and 23 inches by the end of the century >>

Esta es la conclusión:

<< The debate is over: Global warming is here and humans are "very likely" the blame.>>

Así de claro y contundente es la conclusión de un estudio realizado por científicos del Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Para evitar malentendidos os copio la definición de "very likely" dada por los propios científicos:

<< The authors defined "likely" as between 66 percent to 90 percent probable, and "very likely" as a 90 to 99 percent.>>

Ahí os lo dejo para reflexionar...
