I'm firmly of the belief that the IPCC should be listed as one of the wonders of the world. 30 years of extraordinary collaboration. But the current model isn't fit for purpose at this stage of the climate crisis. That model should change, at least by a matter of degrees, as the climate does.

We can't predict how many people will move because of climate change, and that's ok. Models can still be used for generating local/short-term scenarios, but shouldn't be relied on / believed when they spit out big numbers. www.cgdev.org/blog/we-cant...
