In practice this hasn't happened but imo the more urgent effects are
to do with the equilibrium with the surface waters of the oceans, some
45% of the recently emitted CO2 has ended up in sea water as carbonic
acid. This is a significant change in how marine life functions to
sequester carbon and contribute to food chains as ocean pH sinks.

Still not relevant to[stoves] though.
