Scientists warn of permanent cryosphere damage if 1.5C target is overshot
Original: Cryosphere faces permanent damage when world overshoots 1.5C, scientists warn https://www. theguardian.com/science/2026/
Scientists are warning that the world's cryosphere – glaciers, ice sheets and frozen regions – could suffer permanent damage if global temperatures overshoot the 1.5C limit set by the Paris Agreement. The findings suggest that ice loss caused by temporarily exceeding the threshold may be irreversible even if temperatures later fall. The warning is drawing attention ahead of renewed climate policy debates.
Why now: New scientific findings on irreversible ice loss if warming temporarily exceeds 1.5C are prompting fresh concern about climate targets
