- Scientists, including Valerie Masson-Delmotte, warn that global warming will rapidly reach 1.5C without urgent climate actions.
- This warning follows 30 years of increasing emissions, with a 40% rise since the first climate alert and continued failure to meet commitments.
- Recent assessments show greenhouse gases hit new highs in 2024, ocean levels increasing rapidly, and energy imbalance nearly doubling over 20 years.
- Research indicates that a sea level increase of 20 centimeters by the year 2050 could result in annual flood-related losses reaching one trillion dollars across the globe’s top 136 coastal metropolitan areas.
- Experts emphasize that while some progress exists, emission cuts must accelerate sixfold to avoid overshooting 1.5°C, or worse climate impacts will be locked in.

Global Sea Levels Rising Twice As Fast As They Did Last Century, According To Major Scientific Report - Great Yorkshire Radio
The study – which takes a laser focus on climate change in the 2020s, a critical decade to stop the worst damage – finds all 10 measures are going in the wrong direction. And most of them are doing so at a faster rate. The findings are “unprecedented” but “unsurprising”, given the world continues to pump record levels of planet-warming gases into the atmosphere. “We see a clear and consistent picture that things are getting worse,” said lead aut…
