Our second Zero In Report launches today!

How can the latest #climate models help us understand where #GlobalWarming is heading in the next few decades?

And how does COVID-19 affect future climate projections?

Featuring work from across CONSTRAIN

Check out our blog: constrain-eu.org/news/zero-in-2

2/n

Analysing the new #CMIP6 #climate models has helped us to understand where global temperatures are heading, depending on the emissions we produce.

Plus where we stand in terms of the #ParisAgreement - can we stay within 1.5 degrees of temperature rise?

More on the science: see this paper by @kasia_tokarska: bit.ly/3oY1bzM

But it’s important to understand the #ParisAgreement in full - so we’ve provided an explainer in section 2.

And a talk by @CarlSchleussner on our website: bit.ly/3gUzeGA

You’re welcome!

We also show how COVID-19 economic recovery choices can help us meet the #ParisAgreement AND slow down #GlobalWarming by up to half its current rate.

Great work @mckennach!

7.So let’s raise our #ClimateAmbition and take a path that cuts emissions fast and hard:

We can slow down warming, have more time and space to adapt, and get to #NetZero by mid-century.

PLUS! We give you an update of the remaining global #CarbonBudget.
