Even so; I'm going to look at the CO2 emissions data here, because although it's not the correct approach for finding the appropriate scenario, you are doing it incorrectly and doing it right would tend to indicate scenario B as well.
However, because of issues related to data quality, the low frequency of extreme event impacts, limited length of the time series, and various societal factors present in the disaster loss record, it is still not possible to determine the portion of the increase in damages that might be attributed to climate change brought about by greenhouse gas emissions (S1).
