Today, the projected increase is 3 per cent. However, predicted 2030 greenhouse gas emissions still must fall by 28 per cent for the Paris Agreement 2°C pathway and 42 per cent for the 1.5°C pathway.

I can’t see Tambora on that second graph, it doesn’t go back far enough. But I think I can see Krakatoa. What happened in the early 1960s? I presume that last dip is Pinatubo.

I haven’t actually checked his background, but I’m pretty sure that Al Gore is not a climate scientist, and does not claim to be one.

I didn’t actually watch it, but I’d imagine it was presented as a report on what climate scientists were saying, rather than the work of someone who actually was a climate scientist.

So how confident are you that continuing GHG emissions will not increase the probability of the Greenland ice sheet collapsing, with a resulting huge increase in the number of refugees?

Given the consequences of the event, the probability would have to be very close to zero to justify doing nothing, wouldn’t it?
