Climate change is putting world at risk of irreversible changes, scientists warn | Environment | theguardian.com
"“The rate of climate change now may be as fast as any extended warming period over the past 65 million years, and it is projected to accelerate in the coming decades,”
An 8F rise – among the most likely scenarios could make once rare extreme weather events – 100-year floods, droughts and heat waves – almost annual occurrences, the scientists said.
Other sudden systemic changes could lie ahead – such as large scale collapse of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, collapse of part of the Gulf Stream, loss of the Amazon rain forest, die-off of coral reefs, and mass extinctions."

As seen in the post where dear Drewski showed up, AGW believers have nothing if not arrogance and diversion.
Unless it is fear mongering.
Yet more climate "porn" in the Guardian
