1.5 was the hopeful limit if every country has been doing everything it could. Nearly every country did the absolute reverse and increased pollution. 1.5 is already here. +3-4 is the expected number now.

Should be page one and every lede from now til forever

That’s uplifting

+1.8 degrees Celsius? No it's wayyyyyy higher. Take a look at the panel with professor Vaclav Smil in 2024. youtu.be/z1qOCHG-Dmk?...

We. Have. Known. This. For. Decades.

Yeah, 1.5 seems unattainable. 2 is possible still.

Lies. If you have a super yacht and a bunker you'll be fine.

no instead it was relentlessly mocked, AOC was mocked for saying it. Well how is that working out for us?

Unfortunately, climate change deniers will point to predictions like that as proof that climate change is a "hoax", because here we are ten years later and the world hasn't ended yet.

We are on track for 1.6+ this year.. I really dont see how it can be 1.8 with the exponential factor and the fact certain countries are still trashing the planet (cough US of Arses). I would love to be wrong be the numbers arent adding up dashboard.theclimatebrink.com#global

When?

And so far, even worst case projections have been too conservative

These billionaire bunkers are just a random fad.

because money was more important to them

These monster climatic events are our new normal. Climate deniers, you can run, but you can’t hide from them.

But hey, showed those Republicrats by voting for Nader!

. The future of humanity looks bleak . . . 💠 🧐 💠

Low bar

Well according to liberals we just need to vote harder!

... but trans athletes ...

But governments all over the world want to ignore it

They're building their underground bunkers or fleeing to Mars.

But profits might only go up 1% instead of 1.4% anually so wr must burn, or else The Economy Will Suffer. It is moral to do things that are bad for the economy.

One would think that if 90% of warm water coral reef dies that environmentalist would be angry! But NO... 90% dead coral reefs was the best case scenario, which is now gone.

Meth, not even once

They're still measuring. Still writing reports about what can't be stopped. I recognize this.

That's an underestimate. Realclimate.org

Exactly why it should happen. They could use it for repairs. I can't wait to see how their bottom line looks now that we are so poor we won't be buying any of their goods anyway.

Well, we’ve spent 10 years thinking talking worrying and looking at that fucking orange turd so we’ve wasted a lot of time.

We’ll flirt with 1.8C next year thanks to the El Niño and blow past 2.0C sometime next decade at the latest. It will be too late to prevent 3.0C by the time we make any meaningful reduction in carbon emissions. We will have to capture carbon AND use geoengineering in addition to emissions reduction.

I don't think there are any good outcomes below 1.5 degrees too.

They want people uninformed

All those floods and heatwaves are just a coincidence.

Initially the climate scientists tried to lessen the reports so as not to seem alarmist so they talked to the lower ends of outcomes .. and last I saw the number are actually coming in on the higher side. We're going to pollute ourselves out of existence, but at least exec bonuses are still rising.
