The document outlines the top ten things to know about global warming. It states that there is scientific consensus that human activities affect climate, though some models have uncertainties. Ignoring climate change risks damaging valuable assets. To avoid dangerous interference, global emissions need to be held steady and developed nations must substantially reduce emissions by 70-80% by 2040-2050. While existing technologies can help reduce emissions, behavioral changes are more challenging than technological solutions. Climate change effects may not be seen in the current generation but changes are needed to protect future generations.
