Landmark UN Climate Change Report: Act Now To Avoid Climate Catastrophe | IFLScience

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has unleashed their Special Report on the impact of global warming reaching 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
“This IPCC report is set to outline a rescue plan for humanity,”
“1.5°C is the new 2°C,”
If we stick to Paris Climate Agreement commitments, we could still see a global warming of about 3°C by 2100.

    Earth on Track to Become Uninhabitable, Scientists Say
    “Policymakers and the public remain largely unaware of the risks posed by what would effectively be a point-of-no-return transition.”

    Last Time an El Niño Was This Bad, It Killed 50 Million People
    “It was arguably the worst environmental disaster to ever befall humanity.”

    As if oil shortages, perpetual wars, and the existential angst of AI weren’t stressful enough, there’s an El Niño brewing — and it’s looking like it’ll be one of the most severe in over a century.

    According to numerous weather models, this year’s El Niño — a prolonged climate event featuring unusually warm temperatures, which pops up every couple of years — could easily be the most severe we’ve ever experienced in the modern age. This year’s warm spell could supercharge ocean temperatures by as much as 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit, the Wall Street Journal reports, resulting in widespread droughts for some, floods for others, and perhaps most chillingly, chaos for global food supplies.
