No, they have not. Climate models have been consistent in their predictions. What's your source that catastrophic AGW is not there? We currently have temperature models from RCP2.6 to 8.5, all of which point to positively, extinction-inducing situations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representative_Concentration_Pathways https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representative_Concentration_P...
We know that the amount of emissions being made will alter the ocean Ph to the point where a significan amount of phitoplankton will not be able to adapt. We know the effects that projected climate change scenarios will have on plants because we understand their growth patterns extremely well under different presence of atmospheric CO2.
We are currently observing an exponential increase in glacial melt throughout the world in which sea level rise will have significant effects in all coastal cities of the world.
We are seeing already the absolutely catastrophic effects of this year's El Niño on Boreal forests. Ask anyone in the Pacific Northwest in the US and Canada how the fire season is going.
The amount of empirical evidence, even without models, is so overwhelmingly terrifying that there is no reason why this shouldn't be the primary concern of all governments with an interest on their population's welfare beyond the next 20 years.
