The best projections show that average global temperatures are likely to increase 3.1-7.2Â° F (1.8-4.0Â° C) by the end of the century depending on the amount of carbon emissions.
But the [climate] models are getting a lot stronger, said Jay Gulledge, a senior research at the Pew Center on Global Climate Change in Arlington, Virginia. Gulledge says some current projections point to a rise in average global temperature of 0.5Â°C (slightly less than 1Â°F) by the year 2030. The estimates are based on greenhouse gasses already in the atmosphere. While the temperature increase is small, it would be significant. Over the past century Earth has warmed about 1Â°F (0.6Â°C). (See our fast facts on global warming.) Gulledge cautions, however, that warming rates depend on many factors, some of which have yet to be discovered.
