The United Nations panel on climate change told the world that global warming was dangerously close to being out of control – and that humans were ‘unequivocally’ to blame

REUTERS/Wolfgang Rattay/U.S. President Joe Biden tweeted Monday: "We can’t wait to tackle the climate crisis. The signs are unmistakable. The science is undeniable. And the cost of inaction keeps mounting.
A rise of 1.5C is generally seen as the most that humanity could cope with without suffering widespread economic and social upheaval.. This year, heat waves killed hundreds in the Pacific Northwest and smashed records around the world. Wildfires fuelled by heat and drought are sweeping away entire towns in the U.S. West, releasing record carbon dioxide emissions from Siberian forests, and driving Greeks to flee their homes by ferry."The more we push the climate system ...
And if, instead the world continues on its the current trajectory, the rise could be 2.0C by 2060 and 2.7C by the century’s end. It could get even worse, if warming triggers feedback loops that release even more climate-warming carbon emissions -- such as the melting of Arctic permafrost or the dieback of global forests.
