#EarthSystem #Climate #Scenarios: "Scientists are warning that due to minor unavoidable #emissions, the planet will remain stuck in a warmer state for thousands of years." https://sciencex.com/news/2026-06-earth-cool-net-millennia-anthropocene.html?utm_source=nwletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-nwletter
Will Earth truly cool down after net-zero, or are we locked into millennia of Anthropocene heat?

We imagine that if global emissions are reduced, the problem will sort itself out. It actually takes much more time than we can imagine—sometimes hundreds or even thousands of years. We have entered a very crucial stage called the Anthropocene, which literally means the effect of humans on Earth in a deep sense and raises an essential question of what our modified planet may have in store for the future.

Always had a thing for #futures foresight & #scenarios so naturally ended up at Other Worlds at the #BarbicanCentre . Thought-provoking stuff: an 8-billion-person mega-city, planetary rewilding, & vast carbon-removal infrastructure. Fascinating, but couldn’t decide if a utopia or eco-authoritarian dystopia.

"Most... models that inform international policy don’t consider this feedback loop at all. The IPCC treats melting as a fixed, rather than interactive input."

How could it all end up?

They talk a lot about death and that's another thing which you find with these people, that they love death and we love life and the Israelis and the Jews love life and they want to live. They don't want to die. But for these guys, death is good and when they die, they believe they go straight to paradise. So, they're not worried about that situation.

"The climate scientists responsible for laying out the range of possible #futures removed the RCP8.5 #scenarios for a very good reason."

I.e. "world-making", politics, ideology.

Scientists have scrapped the worst‑case climate scenario—because action is making a difference

When major new climate change scenarios are released, there's always strong interest. These scenarios lay out what our future climate will look like, depending on how fast we act to cut emissions.
