English term or phrase: writing elsewhere
The other two papers were published by Nature in April. While governments and the United Nations set targets for cuts by a certain date, these papers measured something quite different: the total volume of carbon dioxide we can produce and still stand a good chance of avoiding more than 2C of warming. One paper, from a team led by Myles Allen, shows that preventing more than 2C means producing a maximum of half a trillion tonnes of carbon (1,830bn tonnes of carbon dioxide) between now and 2500 - and probably much less. The other paper, written by a team led by Malte Meinshausen, proposes that producing 1,000bn tonnes of CO2 between 2000 and 2050 would give a 25% chance of exceeding 2C of warming.
If you want an idea of what this means, take a look at the global carbon clock at www.know-the-number.com. The level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is rising at the rate of 2bn tonnes a month (CO2 equivalent). The Allen paper suggests that the world can produce only the equivalent of between 63 and 75 years of current emissions between now and 2500 if we want to avoid more than 2C of warming.
·······Writing elsewhere········, the two teams gave us an idea of what this means. At current rates of use, we will burn the ration that Allen set aside for the next 500 years in four decades. Meinshausen's carbon budget between now and 2050 will have been exhausted before 2030

Dicho de otra forma/Hablando en plata


Explanation:
Creo que lo que quiere decir la frase en este contexto es "dicho de otra forma", aunque también podría ser que quisiera decir no solo de otra forma sino de una forma más clara, por eso he puesto también la opción de "hablando en plata".

Asker: Tiene sentido esta explicación en este contexto, pero lo viste como frase hecha en algún lado. Yo no la pude encontrar, aunque para mí también es una frase hecha.
