News about climate change

"Implemented policies result in projected emissions that lead to warming of 3.2°C, with a range of 2.2°C to 3.5°C (medium confidence)" According to the landmark, widely reported IPCC Synthesis Report published in 2023. www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/syr/ 1/ pic.twitter.com/8H1jENWUia

Implementation of current pledges and targets (with NO additional climate policy achievements) brings warming down to ~2C. Limiting warming to 1.5C requires substantial additional policy innovation. But we all knew that. Right? climateactiontracker.org/global/temperatures/ pic.twitter.com/QZWPEdFiZr

I've long said we're at risk of losing essentially everything due to global heating - all of modern life, much of life on Earth, billions of human lives, our super habitable planet. More and more climate scientists are coming to see this. Please start listening
