Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 °C
E36774
The Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 °C is a landmark IPCC assessment outlining the impacts of global warming of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and the pathways needed to limit temperature rise to this threshold.

impacts at 1.5 °C warming and 2 °C warming
→
|
| concludes |
global warming is likely to reach 1.5 °C between 2030 and 2052 if it continues at the current rate
→
|
| finds |
impacts at 2 °C warming are substantially higher than at 1.5 °C warming
→
limiting warming to 1.5 °C would reduce risks to ecosystems and biodiversity compared with 2 °C → limiting warming to 1.5 °C would reduce sea level rise compared with 2 °C → limiting warming to 1.5 °C would reduce the number of people exposed to climate-related risks and susceptible to poverty → limiting warming to 1.5 °C would reduce the probability of an ice-free Arctic Ocean in summer → risks to economic growth increase with warming → risks to health, livelihoods, food security, water supply and human security increase with warming → |

global net anthropogenic CO2 emissions must decline by about 45% from 2010 levels by 2030 to limit warming to 1.5 °C
→
global net anthropogenic CO2 emissions must reach net zero around 2050 to limit warming to 1.5 °C → limiting warming to 1.5 °C requires rapid and far-reaching transitions in energy, land, urban and infrastructure systems → limiting warming to 1.5 °C requires rapid and far-reaching transitions in industrial systems → |
