Will a Global Temperature Reduction of 1.5 Degrees Celsius Be Enough To Save Us?

Will a Global Temperature Reduction of 1.5 Degrees Celsius Be Enough To Save Us?

International scientist question if a climate goal of 1.5 degrees is realistic after melting ice sheets look to create record sea level rise.

The BBC's Mark Poynting shows how to spread climate alarm

A gleeful, self-satisfied Mr Punch was often heard to remark: "That's the way to do it." Today we examine how Mark Poynting, one of the BBC's top doom-mongering Net Zero activists, uses the trusted 'scientists say' message to turn a centennial sea level rise of around 30 cm into prose stating: "The world could see hugely damaging sea-level rises of several metres or more over the coming centuries". Added fear is inserted into the mix with the wa…

1.5 Is Impossible. It’s also Already Too High for Ice Sheets

Current budget legislation being hashed out in the US Senate seems likely to slow US progress on emissions. So this new paper comes as unwelcome piling-on. Phys.org: Efforts to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C under the Paris Climate Agreement may not go far enough to save the world’s ice sheets, according to a … Continue reading "1.5 Is Impossible. It’s also Already Too High for Ice Sheets"

Paris Agreement Target of 1.5°C Won’t Protect Polar Ice Sheets: Study

Researchers say that further work is needed to determine “safe” temperature targets to avoid sea level rise but it could be closer to 1°C A new study suggests that efforts to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C under the Paris Agreement may not be enough to save the world’s ice sheets.  Research led by Durham University in the United Kingdom said that while more research is needed to find a ‘safe’ level of temperature that would bring…
