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 …

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
