RCP8.5 Has Been Dropped: What It Means — and What It Doesn’t

Dropping RCP8.5 is a step in the right direction but the CERES Team fears that it’s only a small step. The IPCC still looks set to be relying on the current climate computer models for their “climate change projections”. Even using a more realistic “business-as-usual” emissions scenario, their models are still going to simulate dramatic “human-caused global warming”.

The climate catastrophe has been called off – the plundering continues. Politicians and the media are complicit.

In this article for EIKE – European Institute for Climate and Energy, author Michael Limburg examines the political and media fallout after the IPCC quietly dropped the extreme RCP8.5 climate scenario as a plausible future pathway. The debate in the German Bundestag raises broader questions about how climate risks have been communicated — and whether exaggerated scenarios were used to justify far-reaching policies.
