"[T]he [climate] scenario leading to the greatest amount of climate change [is] called RCP8.5 (indicating a radiative forcing of 8.5 W/m2 in 2100), [which has been adopted by the UN's IPCC] as the single business-as-usual scenario .... which gave it special status among ... the hundreds of baseline scenarios of the broader IPCC scenario database.
"RCP8.5 is not simply 'highly unlikely' — it is [already] falsified, meaning that its emissions trajectory is already well out of step with reality. We showed this conclusively in Burgess et al. 2021, from which the annotated figure below comes.
"The gap between the black arrow (RCP8.5) and the blue arrow (reality) indicates that RCP8.5 is not just unlikely, but impossible — it is already wildly wrong. Since we published that paper, that gap between RCP8.5 and reality has only grown larger.'

"When the story of the great turn-of-the-millennium climate science fraud comes to be written by future historians, the central role of the RCP8.5 ‘business as usual’ model scenario, much featured in recent IPCC reports, will be obvious to all. This ‘pathway’ has polluted climate model predictions for years with its wild and improbable claims of carbon dioxide emissions and soaring temperatures. A huge number of science papers incorporating the pathway are published by obvious Net Zero activists, and their ‘scientists say’ climate psychosis-inducing fairy tales are sped on their way by blinkered journalists in the mainstream press. The science writer Roger Pielke Jr. notes that RCP8.5 has been 'falsified' – most knew it was fake, historians are likely to conclude, but the Net Zero addiction was too strong for it to be given up."
