UNEP’s Emissions Gap Report 2026: The point of return. "The seventeenth edition of the Emissions Gap Report looks at a ‘lowest possible’ 1.5°C overshoot scenario, in which peak warming by around the middle of the century is limited to 1.7-1.8°C and global temperature rise is returned to or below 1.5°C by 2100, with about a 50 per cent chance." https://www.unep.org/en/publications/report/emissions-gap-report-2026 #ClimaticCrisis
