Martin Schiller {soapbox} (npub15ff…3xz7) it seems to be the frequency of the change that is the problem. If the carbon was coming in a lot slower, and we were allowing wilderness to restore itself, the carbon would enter the biosphere and things would adapt more gradually.
Almost doubling co2 levels in the last 100 years is incredibly quick in evolutionary/geological time, like a co2 bomb.
You're right that modelling is... well, modelling. But that's statistics, and that's currently the best we have for predicting the future.
