Join IPCC Chair Jim Skea, IPBES Chair David Obura, and our Deputy Secretary Ermira Fida at 2pm CET on 23rd January for a Geneva Environment Network webinar on the open-ended working group on a science-policy panel #OEWG3.2 for managing chemicals & waste. They'll share insights of existing science-policy panels. Details ⬇️

According to WMO, 2024 was the warmest year on record, with global mean temperatures exceeding 1.5°C above the 1850-1900 average. At #COP29, IPCC Chair Jim Skea stressed our chances of limiting warming to 1.5 °C are hanging on a very slender thread. IPCC's Synthesis Report of the Sixth Assessment Report, released in March 2023, shows that continued greenhouse gas emissions will lead to increasing global warming, with the best estimate of reaching 1.5°C in the near term in considered scenarios and modelled pathways. Every increment of warming results in rapidly escalating compounding and cascading hazards and related losses & damages.More intense heatwaves, heavier rainfall & other weather extremes further increase risks for human health & ecosystems. Deep, rapid, and sustained mitigation and accelerated implementation of adaptation actions in this decade would reduce projected losses and damages for humans and ecosystems.

2024 is warmest year on record, confirms World Meteorological Organization and is likely first calendar year with global mean temperatures exceeding 1.5°C above the 1850-1900 average.

Interested experts with a background in conservation, restoration, land/sea use planning & connectivity are invited to join the IPBES Biodiversity #SpatialPlanningAssessment.   Applications for experts close on 10 Jan 2024 & nominees need to be submitted by 24 Jan. Details ⬇️

Did #climatechange cause that recent extreme event in my country? There is strong evidence that characteristics of many individual extreme events have already changed because of human-driven changes to the climate system. Find out more ➡️ https://bit.ly/WGIRpt

Impacts of #globalwarming of 1.1°C, reached five years ago, has resulted in more frequent & more intense extreme weather events that have caused dangerous impacts on nature & people worldwide. Every increment of warming results in rapidly escalating hazards. Find out more from IPCC's Synthesis Report 👉 https://bit.ly/SRYRpt23

✨🎉 Happy New Year! 🎉✨ The #IPCC’s seventh cycle is well underway! In 2025, significant progress will be made on the next set of IPCC #ClimateReports assessing the science on #climatechange. From the IPCC, best wishes for 2025. #ClimateAction #GlobalGoals
