I think the most actionable summary is this: For the AMOC and other climate tipping points, the only action we can take to minimize the risk is to phase out fossil fuel use and stop deforestation as fast as possible. If we can reach zero emissions, further global warming will stop within years, and the sooner this happens the smaller the risk of passing devastating tipping points. It would also minimize many other losses, damages, and human suffering from “regular” global warming impacts (e.g., heatwaves, floods, droughts, harvest failures, wildfires, sea level rise), which are already happening all around us even without the passing of major climate tipping points. I think they are right and still feel the urge to pretend it’s not happening or not affecting us so much so I can go on with life. This is probably the main problem. When we will finally feel enough pressure that it hurts so bad that we cannot ignore it anymore, it might be too late. Those tipping point frighten me even more than the gradual warming.
