There is a Powerlaw underlying global temperature, in the interglacial-times:

280-ish parts-per-million CO2 as the baseline…

The 9th-root-of-2 times that, gives you what CO2 level produces 1C global warming.

280*(9th-root-of-2)^2 gives you what ppm CO2 produces 2C global warming.

280*(9th-root-of-2)^3 gives you what ppm CO2 produces 3C global warming.

All the way up to 9C.

All the simulaitons which contradict the measured polar heating, the mega-rivers IN Greenland’s ice, etc, are red herrings, and relying on them is incompetent: the evidence has already falsified their predictions.

Here is the paper:

Notice that even not counting all the other greenhouse-gasses, like methane, sulfur-hexafuoride, etc, we already have guaranteed that the planet must stabilize at more than 5C,

… not the 1.5C or 2C that the simulations-which-contradict-evidence predict.

This powerlaw is measured, historical fact.

Delusionally ignoring it … isn’t worthy of respect, OR able to create viability for our species.

I don’t know that there will be any life left, in the tropics, within 1 century.

400+ cubic-km/year melting, now, iirc, and still accelerating, darkening the albedo of the planet…
