      1/ A new report on global warming is out with a grim prognosis for the planet: We may have as little as 12 years to avoid more dangerous climate change, according to @IPCC_CH.

      2/ Under the Paris climate agreement, nations agreed in 2015 that they would take actions to limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius while striving for the even tougher target of 1.5°C. (President Trump pulled the US out of this agreement in 2017.)

      3/ The new #IPCC study stems from that agreement. Here are some key takeaways from the report — which is the latest reminder by the world’s top climate scientists that we need to get much more aggressive about the challenge before us.

      4/ 2°C of warming is worse than 1.5°C, and 1.5°C is much worse than the 1°C we’re experiencing now. It turns out there are enormous differences for the planet in that 0.5°C between the two scenarios.https://bit.ly/2yilz79

      5/ We need to get much better at removing carbon from the atmosphere. The TL;DR on pathways to limiting warming to 1.5°C is that they all require drastic cuts in greenhouse gas emissions at an extremely fast pace, including sucking CO2 back out of the air.

          6/ Policies and economics weren’t addressed in the IPCC report, but they’re impossible to ignore — both are huge parts of the equation. Authors of the report were insistent that they were only mandated to look at the science of limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

          7/ We’re locked into a difficult scenario. Getting on course for 1.5°C of warming would require slashing global greenhouse gas emissions 45% below 2010 levels by 2030. And those emissions have grown, not fallen, since 2010, so the cut has to be even more drastic now.pic.twitter.com/tUI72LTgU8

          8/ All this adds up to a situation with no easy way out — and there’s no room left for wishful thinking about perfect solutions, dodging consequences, and not having to pay for this now or down the line with interest.https://bit.ly/2yaCeJt

          9/9 Everything we do to mitigate warming will have some benefit, but even the best-case scenario involves drastic changes. And the window to achieve it is quickly closing. Read more from @umairfan:https://bit.ly/2PnGBaF

          Replying to @voxdotcom

          Man, if only there was only some living creature that could take carbon dioxide from the air and turn it into some kind of building material that could be used productively, or else buried deep underground to lock up that carbon for centuries. I would call them ‘troos’...
