The 1.5°C climate goal will be breached within 10 years or so. Leading climate scientists overwhelmingly believe there is no way back. ‼️ If you’re an academic and this frightens you, sign our letter to experts working on climate: bit.ly/3f4vtBm

Graph showing the global surface temperature change relative from 1950 to now and then it splits into five projectories from very high CO2 emission with a temperature rise of almost 5 degrees in 2100 to very low CO2 emissions leading to a drop of emissions by 2100 below 1,5 after rising to that high. The graph comes from the Sixth Assessment Report of the ipcc (Working Group 1 - The Physical Science Basis). The title of the graph is "Global warming of 1.5°C and 2°C will be exceeded unless deep reductions in CO" and other greenhouse gas emissions occur in the coming decades"
