Thanks, Rocky, for helping to illuminate it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Juxtapose the two and let me know whether the comparison can be communicated more effectively.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Multiple climate indicators now point to rates of warming-related disruption far beyond those observed during the modern instrumental era.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no well-established geological analog for a sustained, multi-variable, decade-scale pattern of accelerating change across the full Earth system at the resolution available in contemporary observations.
