Global Warming Exceeds 1.5°C Limit; Three Years Remain Before Threshold Breach
A new report from 61 scientists finds that the planet is warming faster than expected, exceeding the 1.5°C limit in 2024, with only three years of emissions remaining before the threshold is breached, based on current emission rates. This warming increase is attributable to human activities and ampl...

WMO: 80% Chance of Exceeding 1.5°C Warming Threshold in Next Five Years
A new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) reveals an 80% chance of at least one year between now and 2029 exceeding the 1.5°C global warming threshold set in the 2015 Paris Agreement, with potentially devastating consequences including increased droughts, extreme weather, and ris...

IPCC Warns of Closing Window to Limit Global Warming to 1.5°C
IPCC chair Sir Jim Skea stated that limiting global warming to 1.5°C remains scientifically possible but requires urgent action, including net-zero emissions by 2050, while current national plans indicate a temperature rise exceeding this limit, with severe consequences for the Mediterranean region.

Greek Storms Intensified by Climate Change
Severe storms in late March and early April caused significant flooding and damage across multiple Greek islands; a new study attributes the increased rainfall intensity (up to 15%) to human-caused climate change, aligning with IPCC projections of more extreme weather in the Mediterranean.

Paleoclimatologist Warns of Millennia-Long Climate Impacts Beyond 2100
Paleoclimatologist Eelco Rohling warns of catastrophic long-term climate impacts, emphasizing that even immediate emission cessation won't prevent millennia-long changes, including significant sea level rise, exceeding current IPCC projections.

Two Years Left in Global Carbon Budget to Meet 1.5°C Target
A new scientific assessment reveals that at current emission rates, the world has only two years remaining of its carbon budget to meet the 1.5°C climate target, necessitating drastic emissions reductions to avoid catastrophic consequences including intensified extreme weather and rising sea levels.

EU Delays 2040 Climate Target Amidst Political and Industry Pressure
The European Commission's delay in setting its 2040 climate target, initially a 90% CO2 reduction from 1990 levels, is due to post-election political shifts, industry pressure, and internal debate, potentially weakening the EU's climate commitment and impacting its 2035 targets.

Hansen Predicts 2°C Warming Limit Breach by 2045
Former NASA climatologist James Hansen predicts exceeding the 2°C warming limit by 2045, advocating for a carbon tax, nuclear energy, and geoengineering research to mitigate the ensuing risks of accelerated ice melt, disrupted ocean currents, and rising sea levels.
