Other methods could involve the deployment of an untested technique to pump underground CO2 produced from burning vegetation, using carbon capture and storage, and planting more forests.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A UN panel of climate scientists warned last year that there will be serious consequences to world food and water supplies if global warming exceeds 2&deg; Celsius. The IEA report estimates that the cost of limiting warming to no more than 2&deg; would be especially expensive because it would require scrapping and replacing dirty power plants. That could cost about US$3.6 trillion from 2010 to 2030.<\/p>\n<p>See <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/environmentNews\/idUSTRE4AB2L220081112\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">full story<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world will have to take extreme measures &#8212; including sucking greenhouse gases of the atmosphere &#8212; to avoid serious global warming, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in its annual report.
