Table
| Scenario | Co2 Concentration at Stabilization | Co2 equivalent Concentration at Stabilization including GHGs and aerosols | Peaking year for Co2 emissions | Change in global emissions in 2050 (percent of 2000 emissions) | Global average temperature increase above pre-industrial at equilibrium using 'best estimate' climate sensitivity | Global average sea level rise above pre-industrial equilibrium from thermal expansion only |
| parts per million (a) | parts per million (b) | year | percent | degrees Centigrade | metres (c) | |
