It turned out things were far more nuanced (as he later said, «The Earth system may be less responsive in the warm times than it was in the cold times»), but in a field that had long mainly foreseen smooth curves for planetary change with rising greenhouse gas levels, the result was a vital focus on the risks of abrupt climate change.
