His «we do not know of a time with permanent ice at the poles and CO2 above 1000pmmv» (except, of course, prior to the big thaw in snowball Earth), and the present rate of increase of atmospheric CO2 being c. 10x greater than previous mass extinctions as far as we know (albeit the total mass being less) are deeply worrying.

To take a specific example, the largest deviation (missing heat) was adequately explanained by increased heat exchange between 0 - 700 and 700 - 2000m ocean layers, so would it now be time to get the Arctic ice loss and the China - India brown cloud effect on Siberia and North Pacific correct?

Polar amplification occurs if the magnitude of zonally averaged surface temperature change at high latitudes exceeds the globally averaged temperature change, in response to climate forcings and on time scales greater than the annual cycle.

(1) One is the ice sheet and glacier mechanical collapse, which doesn't require a whole lot more warming, but will happen with some set minimum amount of warming over some time period; and (2) the other is global warming that keeps increasing beyond the level needed to cause # 1, which among other things will perhaps lead to positive carbon feedbacks (e.g., from melting permafrost and hydrates).

Even in a time of global warming, an increase in ice sheet melting or deep water upwelling can cool the atmosphere relative to the long term trend.
