Vital parts of the climate system, such as the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, areat risk even within the aspired aims of the Paris Agreement to limit globaltemperature rise to 1.5 -- 2{\deg}C. These so-called natural tipping elementsare characterized by rapid qualitative shifts in their states once a criticalthreshold, e.g., of global mean temperature, is transgressed. We argue that theprevention of such unwanted tipping through effective climate policies maycritically depend on cascading Domino effects from (anticipated) climateimpacts to emission reductions via wanted social tipping in attitudes,behaviors and policies. Specifically, the latter has recently been noted as akey aspect in addressing contemporary global challenges, such as climatechange, via self-amplifying positive feedbacks similar to the processesobservable in climate tipping elements. Our discussion is supported with dataon commonly observed linkages between (subjective) climate change knowledge,concern and consequential potential action and we argue that the presence ofsuch interrelations serves as a necessary condition for the possibility ofrapid climate action.
