Its not just about life carrying on though. It wont carry on as usual for humans, and these findings show that we can expect a more rapid and greater increase in temperature than initially expected. This will disrupt food and water supplies, cause inhospitable deserts to grow, and displace a lot of people and animals that were once in tune with their ecosystem before the rapid changes began.
Not to mention we are already halfway to more than doubling pre-industrial atmospheric CO2 levels, the nightmare scenario with 4+ degree warming of the planet seems more likely. These findings mean its going to happen even faster than we thought.
