Correction to: Nature Climate Change https://doi.org/10.1038/s41558-019-0670-y, published online 2 January 2020.

In the version of this News & Views originally published, the ref. 5 author surnames Meihnausen, Fisher and Szekely were spelled incorrectly; they should have been spelled Meinshausen, Fischer and Székely, respectively. This has now been corrected.
