This eye-catching chart is from this article on Phys.org. The article says that a warm climate is more sensitive to changes in atmospheric CO2. Which means that a given rise in atmospheric CO2 raises global average temperatures more when the temperature itself is higher. Not good news. I added the red dot, which shows where the global temperature anomaly is likely to be on the same scale as the long-term section of the chart on the left. Click to enlarge. [Hat tip to JPratt27]
