Version 2 of a report by David Spratt and Ian Dunlop has been released called What lies beneath (pdf), with a rather forceful foreword by Hans Joachim Schellnhuber.
In this report there is something worth looking at for everyone, climate scientist or not. In particular figure 2 (above), which schematically translates the PDF of climate sensitivity uncertainty via the PDF of impact to one of risk (based on some work by Sutton and Hawkins).
This report is not intended as a “science paper”, rather its designed to translate science into action and highlight risks in the way businesses, the military and emergency services should treat risk when it becomes existential. It is worth a read although there will be a lot you might not agree with, its interesting to see how our science is being communicated from beyond our immediate community.
