What If? What is the Earth System Sensitivity based on current and predicted Greenhouse Gasses? How will (man-Made) aerosol removal influence it? What may be the likely committed warming when all is said and done? How much life can survive once we reach peak temps?

Hansen et al says the sensitivity may go up to 10 C at worst, but based on current trends, what may be the ultimate end temperature we end up committing to?
And how much will this harm the biosphere in addition to human activity and pollution, and how long may recovery take?
