Two degrees of warming closer than you may think

Click here to access article by David Spratt from Climate Code Red. 
It's taken a hundred years of human-caused greenhouse emissions to push the global temperature up almost one degree Celsius (1C°), so another degree is still some time away. Right?  And there seems to have been a "pause" in warming over the last two decades, so getting to 2C° is going to take a good while, and we may have more time that we thought.
Wrong on both counts. 
Spratt provides the latest scientific findings on climate change, and it's a rather complicated picture. One thing is becoming certain--we humans are in deep doo-doo thanks to capitalists' addictions to wealth and power and our acceptance of their rule.
