Comment on The Uninhabitable Earth (2017)parent

The recent UN "gap report" concludes that we are on track for 2.7 degrees of warming by end of century, even assuming the recent commitments made by countries at COP26. So far too little is being done, and 2.7 degrees of warming is quite catastrophic.

Considering most climate models even from 30 years ago have been reasonably accurate (within 10%) there isnt much chance that the predictions are totally incorrect.
