Fact. If we carry on as we are now, we will render large regions of the world uninhabitable. I am a climate scientist. Unlike yours, this sadly isn't an alternative fact.https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/1117814772832010242 …

what does 'normal' mean?? the world is already experiencing more extreme weather events as a result of climate change. if we 'carry on' indefinitely, eventually areas where more than 50% of humans currently live will be uninhabitably hot:https://www.pnas.org/content/107/21/9552 …

Would you mind answering my question?
-
it's not possible to provide an exact time for, but if emissions continue to rise as they are, then we can expect very large regions to be devastated by sea level rise: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0264837715301812 … and heat: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-05252-y … by the end of the century.
-
other factors - water security, food production, floods, droughts also all factors. and of course these things are not binary - they are already coming into play today. even if we limit global warming to internationally agreed targets, we will feel (less severe) impacts.
-
Ok, so can you give me a year (or a decade even) when, if these predictions haven’t been proved right, that you will start to question the accuracy of your computer models and assumptions? Just roughly.
-
if by 'these predictions' you're referring to those two studies about the year 2100, well then obviously the answer to that is 2100. if you mean when will we start to observe the impacts of temperature and sea level rise as predicted by models, see

I remember the imminent ice-age in the 1980's, then in 1990 half the world would be desert within 20 years and there would be wars over water. I'm still waiting.

I read in Readers Digest about 1986 that in 30 years time Britain will have summers were it will in the 100s Africa 200s water is the new gold in Europe

Have you ever seen a Northeast summer or Scottish one -
I remember that, and how we'll be growing our own vines etc etc. Never had the good fortune to visit Scotland, but a Welsh Summer can be equally as enjoyable........

It must be true if a ‘climate scientist’ says it.

Julia, you’re smarter than this, totally agree these protesters are going about it all the wrong way, but don’t become a climate change denier, you will look daft to your daughter in 20 years time
