The ‘Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update’ report warns that if humans fail to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to “net zero”, this Records for the worst heat in the decade will be broken. What will be the outlook for the next five years after this cautionary report? While the possible El Nino will take the global temperature to a record level. If the global average temperature exceeds the limit of 1.5 °C in any one of the next five years, should it be considered that the Paris Agreement has already failed. No, but it is a stark warning of what lies ahead if we fail to achieve ‘Net Zero’ soon.
