Most aspects of climate change will persist for many centuries even if emissions of CO2 are stopped. • Sustained mass loss by ice sheets (some of which irreversible) would cause larger sea level rise. • Sustained warming greater than some threshold (greater than about 1°C but less than about 4°C glo ...
