Generally, more uncertainty around climate change means you should be more supportive of climate change mitigation rather than less, because it means we can't rule out things that look like the P-T extinction.
- burntoutfire 7y agoThere's infinite number of events which we can't rule out. My approach is basically the opposite - if the evidence for something is super-sketchy, maybe we shouldn't spend trillions (or even quadrillions?) on preparing for it.
