Just for funsies, think of scenarios where trendlines suddenly stop. I'll go first:
- I get all the benefits of a speeding car right until it hits the wall
- A winter snow is mighty enjoyable right up until I get burried
- The first cookie tastes delicious, the twentieth cookie makes me sick.
A warming world will not behave like the old world. We're projected to lose 90% of coral reefs with the current level of warming. Tuvalu will go under water. We can model that!
