That’s what would probably happen if we keep global emissions flat. It already gives a sense of how fast we should reduce emissons to stay below 1.5°C.
A relatively small, but meaningful difference in terms of human and ecological adaptation. I'd expect a much larger difference over (more) time.
Meaning we need to reduce global CO2 emissions by 45% from *2010* levels, within 12 years from now, to keep global warming below 1.5°C.
Sometimes called negative emissions. Needed on top of those strong emission reductions.
That’s those measures with multiple benefits we should aim for.
Essential stuff for our common future!
