Predictions of Future Global Climate - Center for Science Education
Climate models predict that Earth’s global average temperate will rise in the future. By the end of the century, 2°C of warming may be inevitable and, if greenhouse gases continue to rise at current levels, warming of about 4°C (7.2°F) can be expected.

Future Climate - NOAA Climate.gov
Nov 21, 2014 · At our current rate of emissions, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that CO 2 levels in the atmosphere will double or triple during the next century, and the climate system will respond. Scientists expect some portions of the Earth system to respond more rapidly to the changing composition of the atmosphere than others.
