    Every year we delay climate action, the speed of action needed becomes more rapid. Curves grow steeper—what I mean by "steepening problems"pic.twitter.com/pGiq9E9FKG

        Technically, rapid discontinuous climate action is possible—but only in a context of widespread disruptive, even nonlinear, sustainability .

        Any good account/description available of such disruptive change? Also why "nonlinear"? Delay means hyper-adjustment needed?

        This is a key result of the warming limit framing, first put forth in our 1989 book (big file): http://www.mediafire.com/file/pzwrsyo1j89axzd/Warmingfatetowarminglimitbook.pdf …]

        @EricHolthaus at this point any hope includes massive negative emissions by 2050. And even that would face major disruption.
