UN: Warming almost inevitably exceeds 1.5 °C, but there is a shift in the fight against climate change

According to UN data cited by Tagesschau, exceeding the Paris-agreed warming limit of 1.5 °C is practically inevitable, said Secretary-General António Guterres. According to a UNEP report, to keep warming within 1.7–1.8 °C by mid-century, emissions must fall by more than 6% annually until 2035, yet they are rising. If current policies continue, warming could reach 2.8 °C by the end of the century.

UN report: breaching the 1.5 °C warming threshold is inevitable, world heading for 2.6–2.8 °C

The forecast worsened partly because of the US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and a 133-megatonne rise in its emissions.
