A commentary in @nature.com argues the 1.5°C temperature limit has “outlived its usefulness” because we’re headed towards overshoot and should be replaced by a “clean-energy shift” metric. That’s the wrong diagnosis. Here is why.

More clear evidence from @wmo-global.bsky.social today that global temperatures continue to rise.
There's still time to act — but only if governments rapidly pivot from weak and incremental steps to bold implementation of renewables, energy efficiency, and methane cuts.
