We’re halfway to a tipping point that would trigger 6 feet of sea level rise from melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet Presumably assuming future generations won't try to mitigate anything, like the forecasts of heat-related health issues that assume people will inexplicably stop installing new air-conditioning capacity. The study makes forecasts of melting effects using Kyr units. How concerned should we be, relative to other risks, about sea level changes that will occur thousands of years in the future? As "complex Earth system models (ESMs) are too expensive to run over thousands of years" and the simpler model used "likely underestimates the response time of the GIS to temperature forcing" these warnings seem as speculative as the AI alarms, which at least provide urgency with a doomsday we might live to see.“Although this melting would take hundreds of years, future generations won’t be able to stop it,” Höning said.
