In 2008 the International Energy Agency in its World Energy Outlook 
published a uniquely useful climate change impacts chart, by including 
atmospheric CO2 equivalent stabilization levels  and an indication of 
committed future warming and impacts. The chart makes it obvious 2C is 
catastrophically dangerous, as is 1.5C and 1.0 is the danger limit.
