This entire sorry saga is depressing, especially from Climate Scietiests who should know better. You know the ones who say this is is happening faster then the thought, or things are horrifying, or gob smackingly bananas ... those ones.
I am not suggesting they're bad or even wrong but thoughtful, well intentioned climate scientiests can examine the data and within the bounds of uncertainty arrive at different conclusions.
The ones who look and see the probabilities of the extreme being more likely should be the science being promoted to drive the political discourse and policy implementation (not to drive the evince though to clarify)
The ones who look at the same data and suggest it's much milder should always opine that we should be looking at the other extreme to drive policy, so when they are interviewed they can say "well, this is happening much slower then we expected... " If you're saying "faster then expected", you've fucking failed the rest of us becase there is NO planet B.
All of that aside. No where are we doing anything about any of this and this nonsense is a just depressing distraction.
