- .... despite AJL not having addressed several of the issues in his user-space article? (see here: User talk:Andrewjlockley_/Long_term_effects_of_global_warming)
- .... has it not been moved? despite there being rather a lot of talk page commentary that is still relevant?
The article is still a cherry-pick of papers suggesting catastrophy, with no attempt at determining what the consensus amongst scientists on the issues are. Its another AJL abrupt climate change article. I suggest that it be moved again). -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:07, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- Agree, I couldn't stop myself from rewriting the bit from the "tipping points" article that included West Antarctica. AJL had put this down as "However, more recent research shows that a collapse ..." in fact the article is not a research article at all and had been extremely selectively quoted. If this is the state of an article after months of work then I despair. It does look like a bit of a dumping ground for AJLs favourite bits of science. Anyway I'm off on holiday so I look forward to seeing the state of this when I get back.

- I'm sure the article could be longer, but I don't see why the fact that I haven't got round to including IPCC etc. makes it POV. If you think it needs expanding, please do so - but please don't berate me for not including your favourite sources.
Andrewjlockley (
talk) 09:42, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- What makes it POV is that you've cherry-picked single sources/papers, without a single glace at what the general scientific opinion is on the subject. That you've ignored the IPCC is a symptom of this - you've also ignored the CCSP and every other similar assessment. Thus POV by ignoring due weight. -- Kim D.

Kim, pls expand your points. Andrewjlockley ( talk) 09:51, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Whats to expand? You have one - i repeat - one reference for this. That is extreme undue weight.
- My specifics - as noted where: "Why is this here? When is this going to be felt? What is the likelihood? Is there other research that states the same? Or is it undue weight to a single paper? Do other models corraborate this?"
- As a final comment "predicted" is an incorrect word, and that you still haven't figured this out is very problematic (since its been pointed out repeatedly). --

Andrewjlockley (

- Sorry, but i'm not the one who wants this. Its the policy of Wikipedia - perhaps its time to learn abit about the difference between an encyclopedia and other writings? Encyclopedia's aren't about the latest research - but about the solid agreed research. WP is not news (nor cutting-edge uptodate), nor will it ever be.
- The trouble with your dismissal of the IPCC, is that it reveals POV. We as WP editors cannot and must not take such value-judgements as "out-of-date science" (especially not on a report that is only 2-3 years behind cutting-edge). The CCSP is even newer.

http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar4/wg1/ar4-wg1-chapter10.pdf page 775 looks like what we want.
- Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and other ocean circulation changes: The best-documented type of abrupt climate change in the palaeoclimatic archives is that associated with changes in the ocean circulation (Stocker, 2000). Since the TAR, many new results from climate models of diff erent complexity have provided a more detailed view on the anticipated changes in the Atlantic MOC in response to global warming. Most models agree that the MOC weakens over the next 100 years and that this reduction ranges from indistinguishable from natural variability to over 50% by 2100 (Figure 10.15). None of the AOGCM simulations shows an abrupt change when forced with the SRES emissions scenarios until 2100, but some long-term model simulations suggest that a complete cessation can result for large forcings (Stouff er and Manabe, 2003). Models of intermediate complexity indicate that thresholds in the MOC may be present but that they depend on the amount and rate of warming for a given model (Stocker and Schmittner, 1997). The few long-term simulations from AOGCMs indicate that even complete shutdowns of the MOC may be reversible (Stouff er and Manabe, 2003; Yoshida et al., 2005; Stouff er et al., 2006b). However, until millennial simulations with AOGCMs are available, the important question of potential irreversibility of an MOC shutdown remains unanswered. Both simplifi ed models and AOGCMs agree, however, that a potentially complete shut-down of the MOC, induced by global warming, would take many decades to more than a century. There is no direct model evidence that the MOC could collapse within a few decades in response to global warming.

- Strongly support: Since it is based on data from a specific time period for a report published on a specific past date, this article will only become less and less accurate; a continual outdated issue. Also, hopefully, eventually it will be 2100 and it will not be "Long-term" future, it will be now (not even short-term future). What does Long-term mean in everyday speech, nothing ... at best a meaningless title. ... More likely current title leads to more Climate change controversy thus Climate change denial ( Merchants of Doubt/ Requiem for a Species/ The Age of Stupid) and delay on Climate change mitigation. 99.181.143.101 ( talk) 06:14, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Text block from article on global warming - useful for this one?
I have moved to this article a text block from the article on global warming in the sub-heading of "long-term effects of global warming". Would it be useful to insert the text block here into this article? I'll put it in for now but feel free to cull it out again or to discuss here. EMsmile ( talk) 06:42, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
from "global warming" to "climate change" - see https://www.climate.gov/news-features/climate-qa/whats-difference-between-global-warming-and-climate-change — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.77.200.113 ( talk) 19:23, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
- I agree with that suggestion; it would require a major "tidy up" operation because all the sub-articles are currently a mixture of "climate change" and "global warming". I would prefer if we move to "climate change" for all, to mean the human-induced part and have the currenty article on
climate change be renamed to
climate change (not human induced) or something like that.

I am wondering if this article is really needed as a stand-alone article and if it wouldn't be better to re-integrate it into effects of climate change. The definition of "long term" is anyway a bit strange and arbitrary. I feel there are too many sub-articles around those issues of effects which all languish at very low page views and mostly poor article quality. There is also effects of climate change on humans, effects of climate change on human health, physical effects of climate change, regional effects of climate change and many more. Are we really doing ourselves a favor by having so many closely related sub-articles as stand-along articles? Pinging Dtetta as we were talking about readability improvements which is related. EMsmile ( talk) 13:31, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- In terms of editing climate change related topics on WP, I would definitely find it easier to have fewer choices to focus on. So from that perspective integrating this page into
effects of climate change makes sense to me.
Dtetta (
talk) 23:07, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- OK, I have added the merger tags now, in order to gather more opinions about this. I don't think a separate article for long-term effects is needed/useful, as its content can never be huge since it's crystal gazing into the future, and many of the effects are medium-term anyhow, so the borders are fluid. I suspect that 20 years ago when we knew less about climate change, setting up an article about "long-term" effects might have seemed sensible but possibly less so now. Looking forward to an interesting discussion. EMsmile ( talk) 00:32, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support as there are so many sub articles the merged article can always be condensed later if it gets too long Chidgk1 ( talk) 12:09, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support if done right. Most of this article is heavily outdated or based on not-really reliable sources (The Guardian for climate science is meh). So there should probably be very little added to the higher-quality effects of climate change. Femke ( talk) 12:23, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Ah, that's a good point. I would have copied pretty much everything across and then started the culling & condensing. Is that the right approach, or should we cut & delete first here and then move the rest across? I am not so deeply into the topic that I can judge very easily what's good or not. EMsmile ( talk) 13:43, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- If I were to do it, I'd go the other way around. See if there are any sentences worth saving, and move those across. Ignore everything published before 2015 or from newspapers. When you've saved those 5(??) sentences worth saving, convert this into a redirect. Femke ( talk) 13:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- support per the first discussions on this page, this article was a product of the Global Warming Wars - from the "enthusiast" side - and should not have been re-created. It is long overdue for removal William M. Connolley ( talk) 14:10, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- That makes it easy. :-) Delete content and replace with redirect then? Pinging three people involved in this article in the past in case they object: Andrewjlockley, Vsmith, NewsAndEventsGuy EMsmile ( talk) 15:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support. In generaly, many CC articles have stale content already. Reduce the workload. — RCraig09 ( talk) 21:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Way forward : So I think we'll wait another 2-3 days and if there is no objections we'll go ahead with the delete & redirect. While we are on the topic of stale content for climate change articles that deal with effects, I have long wondered if it's really so helpful to have so many closely related sub-articles. If effects of climate change is the main article, do we really need all these sub-articles (and doesn't it create a lot of extra work for us to keep them all up to date and with reliable sources?):
- Physical impacts of climate change
- Regional effects of climate change
- Effects of climate change on oceans compared with Effects of climate change on marine mammals (perhaps merge the two?)
- Effects of climate change on humans compared with Effects of climate change on human health (I guess the second one is a sub-article of the first one but there is so much overlap and repetition)
- Effects of climate change on island nations (I guess this one makes sense to have as stand-alone)
- Climate change and ecosystems (overlaps with others a lot)
- Effects of climate change on terrestrial animals (overlaps with others a lot)
Overall, I am wondering: does it work in our favour to have separate sub-sub-articles or not really? Another thing we could consider is to use excerpts more. For example, the issue of sea level rise pops up in many of these articles; rather than writing/updating that content each time, perhaps better so simply use an excerpt from the lead of sea level rise. Same with ocean acidification etc. EMsmile ( talk) 07:44, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- I've been tempted to suggest a merge of the 'regional' article into the main article as well. The marine mammals can probably also be merged. Don't have a strong opinion on others as of yet.
Femke (

- I'm sure the article could be longer, but I don't see why the fact that I haven't got round to including IPCC etc. makes it POV. If you think it needs expanding, please do so - but please don't berate me for not including your favourite sources.
Andrewjlockley (
talk) 09:42, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- What makes it POV is that you've cherry-picked single sources/papers, without a single glace at what the general scientific opinion is on the subject. That you've ignored the IPCC is a symptom of this - you've also ignored the CCSP and every other similar assessment. Thus POV by ignoring due weight. -- Kim D.

Kim, pls expand your points. Andrewjlockley ( talk) 09:51, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Whats to expand? You have one - i repeat - one reference for this. That is extreme undue weight.
- My specifics - as noted where: "Why is this here? When is this going to be felt? What is the likelihood? Is there other research that states the same? Or is it undue weight to a single paper? Do other models corraborate this?"
- As a final comment "predicted" is an incorrect word, and that you still haven't figured this out is very problematic (since its been pointed out repeatedly). --

Andrewjlockley (

- Sorry, but i'm not the one who wants this. Its the policy of Wikipedia - perhaps its time to learn abit about the difference between an encyclopedia and other writings? Encyclopedia's aren't about the latest research - but about the solid agreed research. WP is not news (nor cutting-edge uptodate), nor will it ever be.
- The trouble with your dismissal of the IPCC, is that it reveals POV. We as WP editors cannot and must not take such value-judgements as "out-of-date science" (especially not on a report that is only 2-3 years behind cutting-edge). The CCSP is even newer.

http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar4/wg1/ar4-wg1-chapter10.pdf page 775 looks like what we want.
- Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and other ocean circulation changes: The best-documented type of abrupt climate change in the palaeoclimatic archives is that associated with changes in the ocean circulation (Stocker, 2000). Since the TAR, many new results from climate models of diff erent complexity have provided a more detailed view on the anticipated changes in the Atlantic MOC in response to global warming. Most models agree that the MOC weakens over the next 100 years and that this reduction ranges from indistinguishable from natural variability to over 50% by 2100 (Figure 10.15). None of the AOGCM simulations shows an abrupt change when forced with the SRES emissions scenarios until 2100, but some long-term model simulations suggest that a complete cessation can result for large forcings (Stouff er and Manabe, 2003). Models of intermediate complexity indicate that thresholds in the MOC may be present but that they depend on the amount and rate of warming for a given model (Stocker and Schmittner, 1997). The few long-term simulations from AOGCMs indicate that even complete shutdowns of the MOC may be reversible (Stouff er and Manabe, 2003; Yoshida et al., 2005; Stouff er et al., 2006b). However, until millennial simulations with AOGCMs are available, the important question of potential irreversibility of an MOC shutdown remains unanswered. Both simplifi ed models and AOGCMs agree, however, that a potentially complete shut-down of the MOC, induced by global warming, would take many decades to more than a century. There is no direct model evidence that the MOC could collapse within a few decades in response to global warming.

- Strongly support: Since it is based on data from a specific time period for a report published on a specific past date, this article will only become less and less accurate; a continual outdated issue. Also, hopefully, eventually it will be 2100 and it will not be "Long-term" future, it will be now (not even short-term future).

Text block from article on global warming - useful for this one?
I have moved to this article a text block from the article on global warming in the sub-heading of "long-term effects of global warming". Would it be useful to insert the text block here into this article? I'll put it in for now but feel free to cull it out again or to discuss here. EMsmile ( talk) 06:42, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
from "global warming" to "climate change" - see https://www.climate.gov/news-features/climate-qa/whats-difference-between-global-warming-and-climate-change — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.77.200.113 ( talk) 19:23, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
- I agree with that suggestion; it would require a major "tidy up" operation because all the sub-articles are currently a mixture of "climate change" and "global warming". I would prefer if we move to "climate change" for all, to mean the human-induced part and have the currenty article on
climate change be renamed to
climate change (not human induced) or something like that.

I am wondering if this article is really needed as a stand-alone article and if it wouldn't be better to re-integrate it into effects of climate change. The definition of "long term" is anyway a bit strange and arbitrary. I feel there are too many sub-articles around those issues of effects which all languish at very low page views and mostly poor article quality. There is also effects of climate change on humans, effects of climate change on human health, physical effects of climate change, regional effects of climate change and many more. Are we really doing ourselves a favor by having so many closely related sub-articles as stand-along articles? Pinging Dtetta as we were talking about readability improvements which is related. EMsmile ( talk) 13:31, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- In terms of editing climate change related topics on WP, I would definitely find it easier to have fewer choices to focus on. So from that perspective integrating this page into
effects of climate change makes sense to me.
Dtetta (
talk) 23:07, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- OK, I have added the merger tags now, in order to gather more opinions about this. I don't think a separate article for long-term effects is needed/useful, as its content can never be huge since it's crystal gazing into the future, and many of the effects are medium-term anyhow, so the borders are fluid. I suspect that 20 years ago when we knew less about climate change, setting up an article about "long-term" effects might have seemed sensible but possibly less so now. Looking forward to an interesting discussion. EMsmile ( talk) 00:32, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support as there are so many sub articles the merged article can always be condensed later if it gets too long Chidgk1 ( talk) 12:09, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support if done right. Most of this article is heavily outdated or based on not-really reliable sources (The Guardian for climate science is meh). So there should probably be very little added to the higher-quality effects of climate change. Femke ( talk) 12:23, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Ah, that's a good point. I would have copied pretty much everything across and then started the culling & condensing. Is that the right approach, or should we cut & delete first here and then move the rest across? I am not so deeply into the topic that I can judge very easily what's good or not. EMsmile ( talk) 13:43, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- If I were to do it, I'd go the other way around. See if there are any sentences worth saving, and move those across. Ignore everything published before 2015 or from newspapers. When you've saved those 5(??) sentences worth saving, convert this into a redirect. Femke ( talk) 13:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- support per the first discussions on this page, this article was a product of the Global Warming Wars - from the "enthusiast" side - and should not have been re-created. It is long overdue for removal William M. Connolley ( talk) 14:10, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- That makes it easy. :-) Delete content and replace with redirect then? Pinging three people involved in this article in the past in case they object: Andrewjlockley, Vsmith, NewsAndEventsGuy EMsmile ( talk) 15:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support. In generaly, many CC articles have stale content already. Reduce the workload. — RCraig09 ( talk) 21:56, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Way forward : So I think we'll wait another 2-3 days and if there is no objections we'll go ahead with the delete & redirect. While we are on the topic of stale content for climate change articles that deal with effects, I have long wondered if it's really so helpful to have so many closely related sub-articles. If effects of climate change is the main article, do we really need all these sub-articles (and doesn't it create a lot of extra work for us to keep them all up to date and with reliable sources?):
- Physical impacts of climate change
- Regional effects of climate change
- Effects of climate change on oceans compared with Effects of climate change on marine mammals (perhaps merge the two?)
- Effects of climate change on humans compared with Effects of climate change on human health (I guess the second one is a sub-article of the first one but there is so much overlap and repetition)
- Effects of climate change on island nations (I guess this one makes sense to have as stand-alone)
- Climate change and ecosystems (overlaps with others a lot)
- Effects of climate change on terrestrial animals (overlaps with others a lot)
Overall, I am wondering: does it work in our favour to have separate sub-sub-articles or not really? Another thing we could consider is to use excerpts more. For example, the issue of sea level rise pops up in many of these articles; rather than writing/updating that content each time, perhaps better so simply use an excerpt from the lead of sea level rise. Same with ocean acidification etc. EMsmile ( talk) 07:44, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- I've been tempted to suggest a merge of the 'regional' article into the main article as well. The marine mammals can probably also be merged. Don't have a strong opinion on others as of yet.
