UN says 1.5C warming limit no longer achievable ahead of climate summit
Original: As climate summit approaches, UN reports existing 1.5C warming limit is no longer achievable
The United Nations reports that the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C is no longer achievable, according to an assessment released ahead of an upcoming climate summit. The finding suggests current emissions trajectories have effectively exhausted the pathway to that target, sharpening pressure on governments to strengthen pledges and adaptation plans as negotiations approach.
Why now: The report lands just before a major climate summit, raising the stakes for negotiators and drawing widespread attention to failed mitigation targets.
