Global warming has accelerated at an 'unprecedented' pace as the window to limit rising temperatures within internationally set targets closes, over 50 scientists have warned in a study.
Global warming has accelerated at an"unprecedented" pace as the window to limit rising temperatures within internationally set targets closes, over 50 scientists have warned in a study.
The study is part of a series of periodic climate assessments designed to fill the gap between UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports that have been released on average every six years since 1988. The report found that, by the end of 2023, human activity had pushed temperatures 1.31C above the pre-industrial level.
The tightening of global shipping regulations and the decline of coal-fired energy have also contributed to a drop in sulphur dioxide emissions, which also had a cooling effect. However, co-author Pierre Friedlingstein, told a press briefing that the slowing is not enough to avoid climate change.
