The world needs to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius this century, warns a new report from the UN Climate Change organization.
Carried out after a week of meetings in the Alpine city of Interlaken (Switzerland), this 6th report summarizes all the other five produced by experts from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) since 2015, highlighting that in the 2011-2020 decade the planet warmed 1.1 degrees since pre-industrial levels (1850-1900)
“Humanity walks on thin ice, and that ice is melting rapidly,” said United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, adding that the world “needs climate action on all fronts: everything, everywhere, at same time”, referring to the most awarded film at the last Oscar ceremony, “Everything everywhere at the same time”.
