      I meant more of the dictionary version of catastrophic. Sorry if it normally has or implies different meaning when talking about climate change.

          O, then what does the equal equal thing mean? Yea I thought major climate catastrophe was unavoidable even with a complete and immediate change by the entire world. Not that everyone would die in a climate apocalypse.

      Catastrophic means basically we have to move farmland and we have to surround some cities with dikes as they’ll now be under sea level.

      We’re facing ecosystem collapses but that’s from overfishing and more direct habitat destruction, not so much from climate change.
