IPCC reports frequently highlight 'tipping points' in the Earth's climate system. Which of the following best describes the primary concern associated with reaching such a tipping point?

While geoengineering is a potential response, it is not the primary concern itself.

Answer

C. A temporary increase in global temperatures followed by a rapid return to pre-industrial levels.
