Global warming target unlikely to be reached, UN says
Story by Felix Tamsut (with AFP) • 4h

The chance that average warming from 2025 to 2029 is to exceed the 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) benchmark stands at 70%, the United Nations (UN) said.

As a result, the Earth is expected to remain at historic levels of warming.

This comes after the planet experienced the two hottest years ever recorded in 2023 and 2024, according to a report published by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the UN's climate agency.


WMO deputy secretary-general Ko Barrett said the past ten years have been the "the warmest on record," adding a warning that no respite is expected.

"This means that there will be a growing negative impact on our economies, our daily lives, our ecosystems and our planet," Barrett warned.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

A target for something that doesn't exist?  No wonder the United Nitwits is so ineffective. :whistle:
