I followed the links in that quote:
Neither addresses tipping points. They seem to talk about something else entirely, like wether a model assumes constant atmospheric concentration, or constant emissions, that kind of difference.
There's so much wrong with comments starting with "So you ...".
Yes, I'm not a climate scientist. I don't have the time and energy to read all the relevant papers, nor do I need to do so to participate in the discussion on Lemmy. Sometimes I do, but I'm not obliged to, and you're not in a position to judge.
It's great though that you read the paper. Can you support your claim with quotes from it? After all, I don't trust random dudes.
Nah, that's you. Oh, ok. I did not understand you wanted to point out that. This is confusing. Maybe you misunderstood my initial comment.
I'm not agreeing with the quote from the article, but speaking against it.
