Climate change - from CO₂ to crisis. It starts with accumulation of greenhouse gas emissions but leads to multiple global repercussions. Climate change isn’t a distant threat — it’s a systemic chain reaction already in motion & steadily increasing in severity.

New reality: the 1.5 °C target is slipping out of reach. Glen P. Peters argues that while staying under 1.5 °C may become impossible, staying well below 2 °C remains within reach — and urgent, pragmatic policy action can still make a difference.
