    The shape of that curve scares me. I just hope it’s a sigmoid curve, not an exponential.

      True exponentials are rare in nature. Things can look exponential in the short term but are really logistic.

      Look at it this way: if the atmosphere gets hot enough it’ll boil off into space and then the earth will cool back down again due to the loss of greenhouse effect.
