"Don't know what you thunk I was thinking of, but this is the issue." The issue is that once the warming gets started, through whatever mechanism, CO2 and the other greenhouse gasses drive the system from that point. What happens when you push the CO2 concentration as high as we have is unknown. But additional warming is a certainty. And, as I have pointed out, there are numerous carbon sinks that are vulnerable at this point. If they cease being sinks and start being sources, then there is real trouble.
