In the previous post, I covered the very basics of systems science, positive feedbacks, and tipping points in the climate system. The onset of positive feedbacks could greatly accelerate global heating, among other things, cause by human greenhouse gas emissions - and we really want to avoid them. The example of the Antarctic ice-albedo-warming feedback … Continue reading A less boring post on climate feedbacks & tipping points, Part 2: where should humanity aim?
A potentially boring but necessary post about climate feedbacks and tipping points: Part 1
Warning: this post is only for people who accept that scientific inquiry is a valid and useful tool for understanding our world. I would love to reach those who throw the climate science baby out with the Western Science bathwater, but I’ve found that effort to be rather futile. For anyone still here reading, let’s … Continue reading A potentially boring but necessary post about climate feedbacks and tipping points: Part 1
