Also feedback loops can interact with each other, in every possible combination. For example thawing permafrost releases methane which heats the climate, causing more wildfires which reduces rainfall, which heats the climate, soot from the fires falls on a glacier, etc etc
Except that “there are 26 climate feedback loops that are ignored by most models” is a clear misrepresentation of what the article you linked to actually says, which is that this scientific team has identified 26 amplifying feedback loops, including some that the researchers say may not be fully accounted for in climate models.
“Some may not be fully accounted for” is a far cry from “ignored by most models”.
Spreading this type of false narrative on climate science only helps the people who use the “we don’t know enough about the climate to take any action” excuse, please don’t contribute to it!
So basically what you’re saying is we’re all majorly fucked and not in a good way.
Might as we just get the money out of my retirement fund to have some fun with it while it lasts.

It’s a lot.

I am, but I also have a predilection for doomsday scenarios and zero climate science training. 🤡
And in the last year since this was published we’ve done fuckall.
