So what is the best action to take?In 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted that to have a good chance of limiting heating to 1.5C, we should reach net-zero CO2 emissions by around 2050, give or take five years. In fact, for any stable climate we'll need to reach net-zero emissions at some point in our future. Continue reading...
