The warning appears in the abstract and it is blunt. Earth's climate will soon cross tipping thresholds that will commit the planet to a hot house trajectory with long-lasting and irreversible consequences. The climate crisis is accelerating Now. Like James Hansen warned over and over last year, releasing a definitive paper in December: As long as emissions stay high, Earth will keep heating faster and faster. Now more papers and reports are coming out confirming Hansen's prediction. DIYHHP blog posted one yesterday,* this report today, with more to come shortly.

TRANSCRIPT 2 min warning
Scientists warn Earth may be approaching an irreversible hot house state. Earth's climate is moving away from the stable range that supported human societies for thousands of years. The sharper risk is a shift into a self-reinforcing pathway where warming triggers feedback loops and tipping dynamics that keep pushing temperatures higher.
The One Earth paper led by William J. Ripple and Christopher Wolf with Yan Rostrom and co-authors argues that Earth is leaving the climate range that supported the Holocene.

Wikipedia: The Holocene (/ˈhɒl.əsiːn, -oʊ-, ˈhoʊ.lə-, -loʊ-/)[3][4] is the current geological epoch, beginning approximately 11,700 years ago. It follows the Last Glacial Period, which concluded with the Holocene glacial retreat The Holocene and the preceding Pleistocene together form the Quaternary period..
***********
The study's core warning appears in the abstract and it is blunt.
Uncertain tipping thresholds make precaution essential as crossing them could commit the planet to a hot house trajectory with longlasting and potentially irreversible consequences. The study spends significant time on feedback loops because they are the engine of a hot house trajectory. They write that declining aerosol emissions reduce the cooling effect that has masked greenhouse gas warming potentially adding up to a further approximately 0.5° C to global temperatures.
They describe remote interactions among tipping elements where a change in one region affects stability elsewhere. The authors note am Atlantic meridian overturning circulation is already showing signs of weakening.
The paper describes Greenland as likely vulnerable to tipping between 0.8° C and 3.4° 4° C and it notes that this range may sit potentially significantly below 2° C. The study calls for faster emissions cuts and better monitoring of tipping elements.
In February 2026, the EPA finalized what it calls a recision of the 2009 greenhouse gas endangerment finding. And it states, "Absent this finding, EPA lacks statutory authority under section 202A of the Clean Air Act to prescribe standards for GHG emissions." If tipping risk rises with overshoot duration, then weakening major emissions tools increases the chance that overshoot lasts longer.***https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8glyYCBtZk&t=2s
