- RetroTechie 3y agoIt almost feels like having a 'shopping list' of tipping points: * Arctic ocean ice-free * Glacier x, y or z disappeared * Amazon forest turned into savannah * Greenland ice sheet melted * Antarctic ice sheet melted * Global temps 1.5, 2, 2.5°C etc above pre-industrial levels * CO2 past 500ppm in the atmosphere. On to 550 & 600! Etc, etc, and check off each 'achievement' 1 by 1.
