You can take my position to mean I don't know with enough confidence because GW is a political topic, and anybody looking to simply do research that doesn't support an agenda is unfunded.

The threat is not existential (not in evidence), either. Adapting to wide ranging climates is among the things humanity is best at. We live in the Arctic, to the rainforests, to the hottest deserts, to no climate at all (space). Some of us live below sea level (Netherlands).

Rapid climate change is alarming, but it seems to coincide with rapid changes in technology.
