EU tells member states to prepare for 3C of global warming

Original: EU tells countries to make plans to cope with 3C of global warming

The European Union is instructing countries to draw up contingency plans for a world around 3 degrees Celsius warmer than pre-industrial levels. The guidance marks a shift from prevention towards adaptation, acknowledging that current climate policies may fall short of the Paris Agreement goals. It has sparked debate about how pessimistic official planning should be and what adaptation would actually involve.

Why now: Official planning for warming well above the 1.5C target signals failing climate goals, prompting discussion about adaptation policy.
