A new report released by United Nations climate experts predicts that global warming will reach 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial times, about 2030, ten years before the last estimate made three years ago, which threatens new catastrophes “unprecedented” on the planet.

The report issued an even stronger warning, stressing that human behavior is responsible for climate change, and that there is no other way but to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

This first assessment report in seven years, adopted by delegates from 195 countries, reviews the five scenarios for greenhouse gas emissions from the most optimistic to the most hopeless.

In all cases, global warming in 2030 will be 1.5 முன்னதாக C ten years earlier than the Commission’s previous estimate for 2018, compared to the pre-industrial period.

Although the world has succeeded in significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, this increase will continue to exceed this limit.

Just the beginning

Although the planet’s temperature has risen by 1.1 degrees Celsius so far, its effects have spread to waters around the world, western America, Greece and Turkey, and some parts of Germany and China. Temperatures in Canada reached 50 degrees Celsius.

Panmao Joy, co-chair of the expert panel that prepared the first part of the IPCC assessment, emphasizes that climate sustainability requires a sharp, rapid and permanent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions to achieve carbon neutrality.

Part Two

The second part of the report covers the effects of climate change and is due out in February 2022, and shows how life on Earth will inevitably change in thirty years or so.

The third part deals with potential solutions to reduce emissions and is expected to be released in March. But the path to take is widely known: the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Commenting on the report, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he would announce the end of fossil fuels destroying the planet. He added in a statement that the report was a red alert for humanity. Deaf Warning Bells: Greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation from fossil fuels will suffocate our planet.

Although it is necessary to halve carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 to maintain the 1.5 ° C target, all eyes are on Glasgow, where world leaders will meet in November.

Reaction

US Secretary of State Anthony Blingen has said the world is already seeing the detrimental effects of climate change globally because he has called for a firm response to the dark findings of a major climate report released yesterday by the United Nations.

He added, “Therefore, in this crucial decade of the 1920s, it is imperative that all countries – especially the major economies – move the world on a path before it reaches the temperature rise limit of 5.1 degrees Celsius.”
