2. The mean temperature trend under RCP8.5 (the concentration of carbon is at an average of 8.5 watts per square meter across the planet) indicates a 4°C–6°C rise by the end of the century from 2017 levels, with a sharp increase after 2050. Snow-covered areas of Pakistan in the north show a larger increase in mean temperature compared to central and southern regions.
