Reducing abrupt climate change risk using the Montreal Protocol and other regulatory actions to complement cuts in CO2 emissions [1]

Current emissions of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHGs)
have already committed the planet to an increase in average
surface temperature by the end of the century that may be above
the critical threshold for tipping elements of the climate system
into abrupt change with potentially irreversible and unmanageable
consequences. This would mean that the climate system is
close to entering if not already within the zone of
