Which forms the basis
for the IPCC claim of high climate sensitivity (mean value of 3.2 C), resulting in
significant global warming (up to 6.4 C
warming by 2100), «extreme high sea levels», increased «heat waves», increased «heavy rains» and floods, increased «droughts», increased «intense tropical cyclones» — which, in turn, lead to crop failures, disappearance of glaciers now supplying drinking water to millions, increased vector borne diseases, etc. (
for short, potentially catastrophic AGW — or «CAGW»).
However, the case
