World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported56m ago
A new United Nations Environment Programme report indicates that the Earth is set to surpass the 1.5-degree Celsius global temperature threshold established by the 2015 Paris climate accord. The report serves as a formal acknowledgment that preventing some of the most severe consequences of global warming is no longer possible under current trajectories.
Despite this assessment, the document outlines potential pathways for the world to eventually return to safer temperature levels. The report emphasizes a strategic shift in climate policy, moving from a focus on total prevention to identifying methods for mitigating long-term environmental damage and navigating the post-threshold landscape.
