FIG. 1.9 Changes in global (A) carbon dioxide emissions [7], (B) combined land-surface air
and sea-surface temperature anomaly—land-ocean temperature index (LOTI) (relative to the 1951–
80 mean), and (C) sea-level rise, since 1880. (LOTI data from NASA Goddard Institute for Space
Studies, and sea-level data from the US Environmental Protection Agency.)
