The 1.5°C Report

The 1.5°C Report, produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), assesses how limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels can reduce climate risks. It emphasizes that staying within this limit requires rapid, substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Achieving this goal can lessen extreme weather, protect ecosystems, and support sustainable development. The report highlights that exceeding 1.5°C significantly increases the likelihood of severe climate impacts, making immediate action essential. Overall, it underscores that meeting this target is crucial for minimizing future climate-related dangers and securing a more sustainable, resilient future.
