Summary Answer the following questions. 5. (a) If the current CO₂ budget is 51 ppm, when does this model, using Parameter Set I, indicate that we will reach 51 ppm and exhaust our Carbon budget? Show your reasoning. Use the eigenvalues and vectors from that solution to calculate your answer. (b) If CO₂ emissions were somehow reduced through conservation and the introduction of new technologies such as carbon sequestration, could the length of time to exhaust our CO₂ budget be doubled? What parameters would you need to change and by how much? If you can't double the length of time, what is the longest extension you can achieve. Show your work. (c) Explain what the parameters you changed in part (b) mean in terms of the model. (d) Graph the solution to the system with the new parameters from (b) that would double (or extend) the time to exhaust the Carbon Budget. (e) Some scientist have advocated that we will need to return to an atmospheric concen- tration of of 350ppm to reestablish a climate conducive to human existence. Given the model we have been using, can you change the parameters to achieve 350 ppm atmospheric concentration of CO₂ in 100 years? in 50 years? What parameters did you change. Upload one graph with the results of your experiment.
