      Your account was one minute old when posting this retort. I think that answers something. As for curious folks, they're highlighting the text in Q and r-clicking their way to answers.

  actually seems pretty linear so far (tho extremely steep) https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-global-temperature https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/... But most climate scientists agree there are many runaway effects we're headed for pretty directly like - the runaway greenhouse effect - ocean acidification causing the ocean to be less able to take up CO2 (the ocean is estimated to have offset 30-50% of co2 emitted by fossil fuels) - more droughts -> deforestation -> hotter temperatures -> more droughts, etc I could go on but you could also just read the IPCC reports. Believe it or not their quite easy to parse even for a layman. They make two versions of them, one for policymakers and one for academics but in my experience the academically oriented reports are actually more readable and useful https://www.ipcc.ch/reports/ https://www.ipcc.ch/reports/ If you want to skip to the most depressing/dooming one check out the 2019 report on oceans and the cryosphere

    IPCC reports tell a fairly good story imo. The earth is much greener for instance due to CO2.
