Breach of 1.5 degree Celsius temperature threshold now ‘unavoidable’: Emissions Gap Report
The UN Environment Programme's Emissions Gap Report stated that breaching the 1.5 degree Celsius target from the 2015 Paris Agreement is now unavoidable. Global greenhouse gas emissions in 2025 are projected to remain at approximately 58.4 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent. The report indicates that the best outcome now is to limit the rise to 1.8 degrees Celsius.
