FES Just Climate’s Post

For the first time, global warming has exceeded 1.5C across an entire year, according to the EU's climate service. World leaders promised in 2015 to try to limit the long-term temperature rise to 1.5C, which is seen as crucial to help avoid the most damaging impacts. This first year-long breach doesn't break that landmark Paris agreement, but it does bring the world closer to doing so in the long-term. Urgent action to cut carbon emissions can still slow warming, scientists say. "This far exceeds anything that is acceptable," Prof Sir Bob Watson, a former chair of the UN's climate body, told. "Look what's happened this year with only 1.5C - we've seen floods, we've seen droughts, we've seen heatwaves and wildfires all over the world."

🌍The urgency of addressing global warming has never been more evident. Our latest blog post, "Why is there a need for immediate Climate Action?", dives deep into this critical issue. 🌡️ In a world grappling with the consequences of rising temperatures, the imperative to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius has taken centre stage. This goal, embraced by nearly 200 nations, holds the key to safeguarding our planet from irreversible climate impacts. Our blog post delves into the profound significance of this 1.5-degree target. As we explore its importance, we shed light on the far-reaching implications of exceeding this threshold. The survival of our planet hangs in the balance, making swift and decisive action an absolute necessity. Let's explore the crucial reasons driving our commitment to a sustainable future, and discover the role each of us can play in preserving the health of our planet. Read our insightful blog post to delve into the criticality of restricting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. https://lnkd.in/eABBq7rb #Zerogram #sustainability #climatechange #Decarbonisation #ClimateAction #NetZero #ClimateLeadership #emissionsreduction #lowcarbonfuture #blog

Global Warming vs Climate Change There are some subtle and some not-so-subtle differences between global warming and climate change. After having the clear understanding about the same, we also understand that why having our business GHG inventory assessed and audited, is a first step to fight against global warming and the resulting climate change.

Addressing the climate crisis is a collective responsibility that involves not only governments and companies but also each individual. To limit global warming to a maximum of 1.5°C, as outlined in the Paris Agreement, we must strive to reduce our carbon footprint by 45% before 2030. Currently, the average Australian's carbon footprint stands at approximately 15 tonnes of CO2 per year. However, in the next 7 years, we need to significantly reduce this number to approximately 8 tonnes. Below are some practical examples of how we can work towards achieving this vital goal.

Efforts to limit global warming to 1.5°C will fail without urgent attention to the #watercrisis — and tackling this crisis requires new economic thinking. We all must take the responsibility of taking care of our global resources.

The period from February 2023 to January 2024 reached 1.52C of warming, according to the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service. The graph shows how that compares with previous years. https://lnkd.in/d8-DgnU2 NCWGB has long supported action on climate change and you can read our resolution here 👇. https://lnkd.in/eMZFxwnS

The science is clear that we must urgently scale up action and work together to reduce the impacts of global warming and to ensure a greener, more resilient future for us all. The Paris Agreement provides the right framework to achieve this. Our efforts must include support for those countries and communities at the frontline of climate change. It is vital that we take renewed action to hold the temperature rise to well below 2 degrees and take best efforts to limit warming to 1.5 degrees.

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is delivering a major address on the state of the climate and the urgent steps that need to be taken to salvage humanity’s chances of a livable future. - The science is clear: to avert the worst impacts of climate change and preserve a liveable planet, global warming needs to be limited as much as possible and as a matter of urgency. - Every fraction of a degree of warming matters. - With every additional increment of global warming, changes in extremes and risks become larger. You can watch the entirety of the Secretary-General’s speech and hear his firm warnings for leaders everywhere about the urgent need for climate action: https://lnkd.in/eyBuHFxe
