USA Today and other media outlets are publicizing an alarmist climate study claiming Earth has passed a “point of no return†for unending global warming. The study is so flawed that even climate activists are criticizing it. Americans deserve better climate reporting.
A pair of researchers from the Norwegian Business School published the study, claiming, “In this paper we report that in the ESCIMO climate model the world is already past a point-of-no-return for global warming. In ESCIMO we observe self-sustained melting of the permafrost for hundreds of years, even if global society stops all emissions of man-made GHGs immediately.†[emphasis in the original]
This new study projects a climate future so bad, even prominent climate alarmists like Katharine Hayhoe are criticizing it:
