Pacific countries demand world delivers on 1.5°C climate promises
Original: ‘1.5°C to stay alive’: Pacific countries demand the world makes good on climate promises https:// theconversation.com/1-
Pacific island nations are pressing wealthy countries to honour commitments made under the Paris Agreement, warning that the 1.5°C warming limit is a matter of survival for low-lying atolls facing rising seas. Writing in The Conversation, commentators describe the region's rallying cry of '1.5°C to stay alive' and call for emissions cuts and climate finance to match pledges made at international negotiations.
Why now: Ongoing global climate negotiations and rising Pacific concerns over sea-level rise keep the 1.5°C target in the spotlight.
