It appears that RCP 7.0 is out too which is great because it was numerically impossible, I wonder what Old Rock consensus arguments about scientists who fell for this bullshit thinks now.

Watts Up With That?

Excerpt:
You might have read about RCP8.5, which is now called SSP5-8.5. It is the most extreme future scenario proposed by the IPCC. You might also have read that it is being thrown in the trash can.
Finally, you may have seen claims from the usual suspects that the death of SSP5-8.5 is because we’ve been so gosh-darned successful in reducing CO2 emissions. Gavin Schmidt’s RealClimate blog (where I’ve been banned for a couple of decades now) mentions the effects of “the Montreal Protocol, the Clean Air Acts, renewable energy price falls, fracking, the Paris Agreement, actual climate policies”.
Figure 1. The inexorable rise of atmospheric CO2. If emissions were dropping as the usual suspects claim, the rise would be slowing.
